I was at the Houses of Parliament yesterday to stand outside in the cold and protest. The report stages of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill takes place today and we were there last night to support those pro-choice MPs whom have tabled amendements to improve the law to end obscturction and delay and extend abortion rights to Northern Ireland.
While we were waving the banners, a single pro-life demonstrator was holding aloft a cheap plastic crucifix with flashing coloured lights in her left hand, while holding onto the OAP wheeled shopping cart with her right hand. At first, I thought she was selling them for Christmas, but I was wrong for she had dressed in her Jesus wear to challenge the right of women and demonstrators to take control of their own bodies in al parts of the UK.
Not the church, not the state; women have a right to decide their fate.
