In 2019 the British Overseas Territory’s parliament passed an act liberalising its abortion regime, but opted to leave it to Gibraltarians to decide whether it should come into force. Today, they hold a referendum. The Rock has some of Europe’s most severe anti-abortion laws. Termination of pregnancy is punishable by life imprisonment—except when the woman’s life is at risk. Under the proposed law, medical abortions would be legal for women who are no more than 12 weeks pregnant if the mother’s “mental or physical health” are considered at risk or if she faces “grave permenant injury”. This would include rape- and incest-related pregnancies, and cases where the fetus has fatal anomalies. Gibraltar’s majority Roman Catholic population has long opposed legalising abortion. But opinions are changing. Last year a poll by a local broadcaster found that 70% of Gibraltarians intended to vote “yes”. 在英國 (本土法律) 允許婦女於特定情況下,合法墮胎的 50多年後,直布羅陀 (Gibraltar,一英國位於西班牙南部的海外領地) 將可能跟進辦理。在 2019年時,直布羅陀議會通過了一部鬆綁墮胎制度的法律,但其生效與否仍待當地人決定,而他/她們將在今天舉行公投。直布羅陀一直以來有著全歐洲最為嚴謹的反墮胎法。除非婦女有生命危險,否則為其操作墮胎手術將被判處無期徒刑。根據新研議的法律,假如懷孕婦女的孕期在低於 12週的條件下被診斷出身心健康狀況有所風險或處於「重大且永久性的傷害」,那麼就可以合法利用藥物墮胎。前稱的傷害包括了與強姦以及亂倫有關的懷孕,以及胎兒有致命性的異常發展等。佔直布羅陀民眾多數的羅馬天主教徒長期以來一直反對墮胎合法化,但民意正在發生變化。當地一家廣播公司在去年做的一項民調發現,70%的直布羅陀人打算 (在墮胎之公投) 投下「贊成票」。 ⚜️Daily takeaway⚜️ 每日單字精選 ✅Circumstance (n.): 環境、狀況、情況 (名) ✅Follow suit (v.): 跟進 (動) ✅Liberalise (v.): 放開、自由化 (動) ✅Opt to (v.): 選擇 (動) ✅Come into force (v.): 生效 (動) ✅Pregnancy (n.): 懷孕、孕期 (名) ✅Life imprisonment (n.): 終身監禁、無期徒刑 (名) ✅At risk (adj.): 有風險的、處於風險之中的 (形) ✅Mental (adj.): 精神的、心理的 (形) ✅Permenant (adj.): 永久的、常駐的 (形) ✅Fatal (adj.): 致命的、有害的 (形) ✅Intend (v.): 打算、有意、意圖 (動) — ✔︎ 按讚【每日一經濟學人】Facebook 粉專:https://reurl.cc/Lddode ✔︎ 追蹤【每日一經濟學人】Instagram 帳號:https://reurl.cc/Oqqoq3 ✔︎ 訂閱【每日一經濟學人】YouTube 頻道:https://reurl.cc/Y665dX ✔︎ 閱讀【每日一經濟學人】Medium 平台:https://reurl.cc/k00WZr — 🔶如有商業合作或業務需求,請洽:[email protected] 🔴如影音內容有誤,歡迎來信勘誤:[email protected] -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
