US President Joe Biden has blamed Donald Trump for Florida’s upcoming abortion ban and other restrictions across the country that have imperiled access to care for pregnant women, arguing Mr Trump has created a “healthcare crisis for women all over this country”.

Mr Biden’s campaign events at Hillsborough Community College in Tampa placed the president in the epicentre of the latest battle over abortion restrictions.
