She has depicted opponents of a failed bill as members of a ‘baby-killers club’.
“The innovation of this bill is that it allows a mother to end her pregnancy throughout all nine months and indeed, right up to birth,” he said. Abortions after 27 weeks and six days are extremely rare. All later terminations must be approved by two doctors, and only be carried out if there is significant risk to the woman and the foetus. Examples include if the foetus has severe abnormalities, or if the woman’s life is at risk, or her mental health because, for instance, she is the victim of rape, incest or domestic violence.
“It baffles me why somebody would do that in the first place, and it baffles me further why they’d only target the women members of parliament,” Franks said.“My focus is on high quality, scientific, evidence-based health law, policy and practice,” she said this week.She appeared in a video with the rightwing Liberal senator Alex Antic talking about a “born alive” bill he co-sponsored with the LNP senator Matt Canavan and United Australia party senator Ralph Babet.
