ABORTION 'SAFE ZONES' COME INTO FORCE IN ENGLAND

So called 'safe zones' outside abortion clinics are coming into force across England and Wales.

It's now illegal to hand out anti-abortion leaflets outside clinics or harass or obstruct any staff or patients.

Silent prayer within these zones would not necessarily be a criminal offence, depending on an individual's wider conduct.

But pro-life campaigner Lois McLatchie Miller says the rules are too broad.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are hot on each other's heels today, campaigning in the same battleground states with less than a week to go until polls close. 


The White House hopefuls will be in Wisconsin and North Carolina, following the Vice-President's finely toned address to 75,000 people last night, in which she drew a stark contrast between herself and the former President. 


She's also separated herself from the current President, after Joe Biden called his predecessor's supporters — or, as he later clarified, their language  — "garbage", the word recently used by a speaker at a Trump rally to describe the US territory of Puerto Rico.
