Inevitable, really. This Government can’t really count on many loyal supporters, and they can’t afford to be completely alienating journalists and pro-choice activists (sorry, I repeat myself) with whom they made a pact all the way back in 2016 or so. On Friday, Donnelly’s department quietly tried to walk away from the idea, but he […]
Oh well.
“You couldn’t make it up”, they say, when something ridiculous is reported in the media. As ridiculous government decisions go, one would struggle to find anything more ridiculous than the decision in 2018 to pay GP’s €450 per patient for early pregnancy abortions (requiring an average of 4 GP visits), at the same time as […]
New official statistics have revealed that 25% – one in four – pregnancies in England and Wales were ended in abortion in 2019. The further rise in the number of unborn babies killed by abortion has been described as “deeply shocking” by pro-life activists. The figures, released by the Office of National Statistics, showed that […]
Tonight RTÉ, the publicly-funded broadcaster, will celebrate the repeal of the right to life of helpless preborn babies and cheer along with the ghouls in Dublin Castle who did conga lines in delight at abortion. That’s not how they’re selling it obviously. A ‘abortion movie night’ might not get as many views. Instead they’re using all […]
If you go on to the HSE’s information page about abortion services in Ireland, and into the section advising people about what to expect after an abortion, one of the first lines you will read advises you that “around 2 or 3 out of every 100 people who have an abortion at less than 9 […]
The First Minister of the Northern Ireland Assembly says he has sought legal advice on how to resist the imposition of full abortion services by Westminister. Paul Givan, who is a DUP member of the Legislative Assembly, said that he is assessing his options in a bid to stop the Secretary of State, Brandon Lewis, from using new […]
Health Minister, Stephen Donnelly has indicated that pro-life protests outside abortion centres will not be outlawed under new legislation, a move that has been welcomed by pro-life activists. Abortion campaigners had sought to ban peaceful and often prayerful outreaches outside GP offices or hospitals, despite Gardai saying that no issues had arisen. Pro-life groups said […]
Transfer “would destroy innocent life.”
Nurses and midwives have said they are appalled at being told they must “respect” abortion in updated guidelines from the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland. The Board has published an updated edition of its Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Registered Nurses and Registered Midwives (the Code) to “embrace” some recent legislative changes […]
For decades, the feminist movement has been synonymous with abortion advocacy. When I reported on the Women’s March in 2017, abortion was pushed by nearly every speaker as fundamental to feminism, and icon Gloria Steinem, then 82-years-old, sat smiling serenely on the dais. Many believe that the sexual revolution and the women’s movement have always been one […]
55 local Rallies for Life have taken place across the country urging the public and TDs to #RethinkAbortion in view of the shocking outcomes of the abortion regime so far. Because of Covid-19 restrictions, the local rallies took place in lieu of the national pro-life march on the first weekend of July , but organisers […]
