Two British women face prison for having abortions under 160-year law

The CPS, who have been blamed for a dramatic collapse in the number of rape cases going to court because they were chasing conviction stats, have decided to pursue these cases against these two women. Cases where women are alleged to have caused their own abortions. Something that’s broadly accepted as a human right in this country.
I’d like to know who made that decision, how they justify it as being ‘in the public interest’ and any government pressure that may have contributed to the decision to proceed with these cases.

I didn't get a scan for the pills. They asked me the date of my last period - I said I didn't know as I just kept on taking my pill with no breaks. But for some reason the pill had obo failed.
So they gave me the pills. Ended up in hospital and without wanting to cause anyone distress - I'd say it was a fairly late term abortion in the end.
The nurse was shocked when I called her to the room and so was I.
