MPs want abortion review

Ministers are coming under pressure to change the abortion law before the next election.

A total of 47 MPs have now signed early day motions welcoming new images showing young foetuses apparently "walking in the womb" at 12 weeks.

About 50 more are demanding a review.

The majority of Conservative MPs reportedly favour a review while most Liberal Democrats also back reform. Labour is split.
