Trump winning the US presidential elections is a huge lose for women across the globe. Women's rights are up in the air across America, and already Trump has signed an international declaration of not supporting abortion. The US has such a huge influence on the rest of the world, and coming from Northern Ireland, this all feels very close to home considering how recently abortion was decriminalised. In this weeks episode I thought I'd explain the history of abortion laws across the UK and Ireland, as it's a topic I feel so passionate about and hate the thought of us, too, taking steps backwards.
