SPUC banned on spurious grounds by Dundee University Students' Association

The Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC) has been banned on spurious grounds by Dundee University Students' Association (DUSA) from its Freshers' Fayre.

DUSA claims that SPUC's campaigns are contrary to DUSA'sConstitution, and that SPUC has engaged in extreme behaviour at pastFreshers' Fayres. DUSA has, however, failed to provide any evidence toback up their claims.

Rachel Kidd of SPUC Scotland http://spucscotland.org/said: "DUSA has quoted several sections of its Constitution againstSPUC, but none of those sections contains anything opposed by SPUC.Also, DUSA has been asked to back up with evidence its claim of extremebehaviour by SPUC at Freshers' Fayres, but has failed to provide anyevidence.

"From 2005 onwards, SPUC held a stall at Freshers’ Fayre for eightconsecutive years without any problems. The stall simply offered factualinformation on the development of the unborn child and real help towomen who may find themselves in a crisis pregnancy situation.

Miss Kidd concluded: "DUSA makes a great deal of noise about beingfair and unprejudiced towards groups with differing views. SPUC'seffectiveness in communicating the pro-life message on campus seems tohave provoked DUSA to treat SPUC in an unfair and biased way."
