The '''Abortion Act 1967''' was an act of the [[UK Parliament|Parliament of the United Kingdom]], introduced as a Private Member's Bill by the now-disgraced [[pedophile]] defender [[David Steel]], which in effect legalised the murder of unborn children or, as the legislation refers to it, 'abortion'. As of 2024, nearly 10 million unborn children have been killed in abortions carried out within the provisions of the Act.<ref>[https://www.spuc.org.uk/abortionactanniversary Abortion Act Anniversary Write to Your MP]</ref> As such, many view the Abortion Act 1967 as one of the worst [[crimes against humanity]] in European history. As far back as its introduction in the 1960s, the Act was compared to the [[Nazi]] crimes against humanity; even abortion doctor Aleck Bourne predicted it would lead to "the greatest [[Holocaust]] in history".
