Not everybody can afford it
Not everybody can leave (health issues, abusive partner)
People with babies that won't survive birth have to get the ashes back via the post (I wish I made this up...)
Refugees/asylum seekers are stuck
One women got forced into a c-section
Several women have died
So yes in theory, people can travel but if you don't have the money, or are sick, forget about it. It's the same in NI, with the only difference that our laws are not so ridiculous people have actually died.
Abortion Support Network provides money but they can't help people with no travel papers/with abusive partners...
I think I missed that bit, I know in 1984 the x-case (where they did try to stop women from leaving!) meant that the state could not stop women from leaving.
But that still happens? It would in a way not surprise me...
