Should the legal abortion limit change?

The test question and the possible answers

The legal time limit for abortion…

What's at stake: Legal limits in Europe range from 12 to over 20 weeks. The debate weighs a woman's autonomy against protecting a developing foetus.

The left's argument

A longer limit helps those who find out late about their pregnancy or struggle to see a doctor.

The centre's argument

Current limits are almost always enough: better to make quick access easier.

The right's argument

The further a pregnancy goes, the more the question of the foetus arises. Current limits suffice.
