SPUC to intervene in bedroom abortions case

SPUC has said that it will seek leave to intervene in a court case on the legality of so-called bedroom abortions. SPUC was responding to a High Court challenge launched by the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS), one of Britain’s main abortion providers. BPAS is seeking to widen the scope for using the drug misoprostol, used in conjunction with RU486, the abortion drug. [SPUC, 13 January] http://bit.ly/gNiZkq

Abortionist charged with infanticide and multiple other crimes

The worldwide pro-life movement is reflecting and commenting on the reports regarding Dr Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortionist accused of running the most bloody and sordid abortion business perhaps ever recorded. Dr Gosnell and his staff are accused, among many other things, of numerous infanticides; deaths of, and injury to, women patients and keeping a collection of severed baby feet in jars. Anthony Ozimic, SPUC's communications manager, commented: "Dr Gosnell's alleged crimes constitute but one case among many - though perhaps the worst recorded one - of gross moral degradation among abortionists. The details of Dr Gosnell's alleged degradation are indications that abortion is wrong, as those details mirror very closely the details of other cases of mass killing."

Irish voters must use their general election vote for life and family

Pro-life leaders are calling upon Irish voters to vote pro-life and pro-family in the republic's forthcoming general election. Pat Buckley of European Life Network commented: "I would encourage all my Irish colleagues to contact representatives of all parties to clarify their position on the critical social issues such as the right to life of the unborn and to vote only for pro-life, pro-family candidates. It would be a grave error for political parties to focus only on economic policies when there are equally disastrous social policies that require urgent attention."
