The actress has sparked heated debate on Twitter by calling for a sex strike over strict Georgia abortion law. Charmed star and MeToo activist Alyssa Milano is taking drastic action to protest against a strict new abortion law in the US state of Georgia.

The controversial law prohibits women from having an abortion as soon as a foetal heartbeat can be detected, which typically occurs at around six weeks into a pregnancy - a point at which many women do not yet know they are pregnant.
