Limit each paragraph to one idea unless you are linking related points. If you are comparing old and new, for example, it makes sense to bring them together in one paragraph. Complicated information, or a discussion of several ideas, generally needs to be broken up into separate paragraphs to be easily understood.

Abortion; the deliberate termination of a pregnancy before 24 weeks gestation, has been a fact of life in the UK for 40 years.
