Shocking US abortion clinic court case...
Posted on 22 March 2013.
We are often told by abortion activists that criminalising abortion would inevitably lead to unsafe abortion.  Abortion is legal in the US, as it is in the UK, yet a court case is in progress in the US state of Philadelphia against a particularly shoddy abortion clinic, which negates that particular argument.  It should be noted that for years...

Posted on 26 June 2012.
In an update to the terrible story of Feng Jia Mei’s forced abortion, it seems that victimisation of her family continues, including the disappearance of her husband.

Posted on 26 June 2012.
The Guardian today castigated Youth Defence, an Irish pro-life group, for putting up posters around Ireland.  It went so far as to criticise the Irish Advertising Standards Authority for failing to ban these ‘scaremongering’ posters.  Surely the billboards must have been truly awful to persuade The Guardian to renounce its traditional...

Posted on 15 June 2012.
Forced abortion in China is in the news again as a woman posts graphic pictures of her dead baby online.

Posted on 31 May 2012.
In the abortion debate, and in abortion clinics, there is huge reluctance to discuss the reality of the operation itself. Of course any medical student planning to perform abortions does have to have comprehensive training.  Below are graphic drawings from a medical text book showing how abortions are carried out at 14 and 23 weeks.  Is it...

Posted on 23 May 2012.
The much publicised live broadcast from a Marie Stopes clinic on 23rd May was predictably one sided.  The programme opens with Karen, described as a Healthcare Assistant, qualifications unknown, who is adamant that the clinic does not allow abortion for non-statutory reasons such as financial hardship.  However from that point onwards, the...

The ProLife Alliance is very disturbed by the recent announcement by Boots Chemists that they plan to sell Levonelle, the morning after pill, via their website.  This is a profit-motivated strategy with little regard for women’s health or any ethical considerations.  Their standards’ director, Paul Bennett is quoted in the Daily Mail (14/8/2010)...
