Pro-choice, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions

This answer aligns closely with the Liberal Democrats' stance on abortion. They are pro-choice and also support policies that help reduce the number of abortions, such as providing birth control, sex education, and social services. For example, in their 2019 General Election Manifesto, they pledged to ensure access to free contraception and high-quality sex and relationships education.

Agree

Pro-choice, I don’t agree but the government has no right to ban it

Slightly agree

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months

The Liberal Democrats are pro-choice, but this answer suggests a restriction on abortion after the first three months. While they may not fully agree with this specific restriction, they have shown some support for time limits on abortion in the past. For example, in 2008, the majority of Liberal Democrat MPs voted against reducing the abortion time limit from 24 to 20 weeks.
