Nosy Busybodies

The man who wants to lead a sensible debate on abortion

'It is an unspeakable crime... I urge politicians to have no truck with the evil trade of abortion... It is the equivalent of... two Dunblane massacres a day' Cardinal Keith O'Brien, Head of The Roman Catholic Church in Scotland

Anti-abortion campaigners are ready to launch a US-style cultural war against the 40-year-old law that allows women in the UK to choose to terminate unwanted pregnancies - with politicians who are also practising Roman Catholics as their first targets.

MPs and other elected representatives who attend Mass but have not taken a hard line against abortion will be targeted by activists who say they should be disowned by the Church.

The head of the 17,000-strong Life League said yesterday that the organisation will write to every Catholic MP demanding a clear statement that they support the Church's line on abortion and all other "life" issues.

What a woman does with her own body is no ones business but hers, the anti-abortion idiots are nosy busybodies who need to STFU. Banning abortion won't stop women getting them, the wealthier ones will go abroad while the less well off will go for an unsafe backstreet abortion, with the possibility of infection or even death. Put quite simply if your pro choice your anti-coathanger. What these anti abortion tossers want to do is condemn women to pain and misery.

I suspect Cardinal Keith O'Brien is fuming at the fact that 90% of catholics ignore what their cardinals say.

Unless the Catholic church stops objecting to contraception, then they have no credibility in this area.
