Personally I don't agree with abortion but can see that at times they are neccessary. I think the time limit should be lowered but the decision has been made not to.
What really puzzles me is why in this day and age we have so many unwanted pregnancies. For goodness sake birth control is free, so why don't people use it?

Before anybody has a go I know that sometimes birth control fails and that in the case of rape the woman might not have been using any. It just seems to me that some people are to lazy to go and get adequate protection

In the majority of cases a woman will know she is pregnant long before twenty four weeks and therefore the time limit won't matter because she will be sorted long before then!!!
