Despite Jenrick's claim to support a "small state that works", he takes several liberal positions that undermine this.
=== Abortion ===
Robert Jenrick has a generally poor track record on life issues. As of October 2024, of the 16 parliamentary votes on [[abortion]] and assisted suicide, Jenrick has voted with the pro-death/[[pro-abortion]] lobby 9 times. For example, he voted in favour of the permanent legalisation of 'DIY' home abortions in England in March 2022, and for legalising abortion in Northern Ireland up to birth for unborn children with disabilities. He also opposes the free speech of pro-life activists, as evidenced by his support for an amendment to introduce buffer zones around abortion clinics. He abstained on 5 votes and voted with the pro-life lobby on only one vote. Jenrick also voted in favour of legalising assisted suicide.<ref>[https://righttolife.org.uk/votes/Newark/Robert-Jenrick Where Does Robert Jenrick stand on Abortion?]</ref>
