"We're sending a message to all women: your body belongs to you, and no-one can decide for you.” Those were the words of the French prime minister after parliament voted to include the right to an abortion in the country's constitution. Research into public opinion suggest the measure is supported by a large proportion of French people, though it has been criticised by anti-abortion campaigners and the Catholic church.
