On September 6, 2025, the annual "March for Life" took place in London, with more than 10,000 people participating to stand for the protection of unborn children. This was reported by Christian Today.

The march began with prayer and worship services, after which participants proceeded to Parliament Square. The majority of participants were Christians, but atheists who shared the march's goals also joined. There were reports of isolated provocations from abortion supporters, but the event was generally peaceful.

This year's March for Life was supported by a number of Christian leaders including Anglican and Catholic bishops, evangelist Glen Scrivener, Christian Concern CEO Andrea Williams, evangelical theologian Dr Aaron Edwards, Carla Lockhart MP, and pro-life campaigner Regan King. Reflecting on the success of the day, co-organizer of the "March for Life" Isabel Vaughan-Spruce said that, more than the numbers, she was delighted to hear so many amazing stories of pro-life advocacy across the country.

Dr Edwards said the event had been an important "public witness in the hope of having the stain of abortion removed from our land". Scrivener said he could "really see some of the truth-bombs at Parliament Square landing with force on counter- and other protestors". Adam Smith-Connor, previously convicted for praying outside an abortion clinic, called the march "a fantastic witness" to the sanctity of life.

Organizers are confident that such events help change culture and strengthen the value of human life from conception.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that in Canada, there was a proposal to apply euthanasia to infants with severe illnesses.
