Mayor calls on TfL to reverse abortion advert ban

The Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, is advocating for Transport for London (TfL) to reconsider its ban on British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS) advertisements that promote the decriminalisation of abortion.

BPAS's CEO, Heidi Stewart, emphasizes the importance of reforming abortion laws to prevent further injustice and trauma from police investigations, urging swift action from the mayor's office to allow these voices to be heard.
