Early gender tests 'leading to selective abortions of girls in UK'
Blood tests used to reveal a baby’s gender are leading to the abortion of unwanted girls in the UK, MPs and charities have warned.
Labour MP Naz Shah, shadow women and equalities minister, said the government must act now to stop the misuse of Non-Invasive Prenatal Test (NIPT) to abort pregnancies based on gender.
The NHS only allows pregnant women the early blood test to screen for genetic conditions, but private clinics are offering expectant parents the chance to find out their baby’s gender for around £150 to £200.
“The government needs to look into this exploitative practice and enforce appropriate restrictions," Ms Shah told the BBC’s Victoria Derbyshire programme. (
Aka - now that some Brits can’t handle prenatal gender tests, no Brits should have them)
The MP said a
cultural preference for boys among some ethnic minority communities in the UK was “forcing (women) to adopt methods such as NIPT to live up to expectations of family members”....

That's just their initial biological gender. I'm sure many of them will choose to be male once they are born. What about the males born that transition to female. Are they allowed to retroactively abort them?

As horrific as this sounds, maybe we should just let the humans with maladapted genetics exterminate themselves so that humanity can progress to the stars without a "left" destroying everything.

Someone in the UK should start a list of modern conveniences Brits can no longer handle due to “ethnic cultural preferences”.

Then there are those that insist nobody gets left behind, no matter how they are...
From womb to grave the left want to drag you kicking and screaming to the direction of their wills and whims, even if it kills you, or them (or both) in the process.
