Surrogacy Concern featured in The Jewish Chronicle

We have been quoted in an article in The Jewish Chronicle, in reference to the Government announcing it will not be taking forward Law Commission plans to liberalise domestic surrogacy law.

Although not approached directly to provide a quote, the JC mentioned our campaign and some of our reasons for opposing the Law Commission plans.

We would remind readers that gestational surrogacy is 3x higher risk for severe pregnancy complications, including sepsis, pre-eclampsia and postpartum haemorrhage, and that babies bond with their mothers in utero. We do not support any form of surrogacy and believe the practice to be profoundly unethical and exploitative.



About

We are a group of women and men in the UK, who have come together to oppose liberalisation of the law on surrogacy and to raise awareness of the surrogacy industry; we also oppose egg harvesting for the purposes of egg donation, and payments for egg donors. We do not believe it is right to separate mothers and their children, nor do we believe the law should be relaxed to make surrogacy easier in Britain.

Our founder and volunteers hail from left wing backgrounds; we campaign against surrogacy from a feminist perspective, which fundamentally centres the right of children to remain with their mothers, and against the commodification of women’s bodies and the commercialization of pregnancy. All are welcome to join us in our fight.
