Kim Leadbeater's assisted suicide bill has been described by MPs as a "farce", an "embarrassment" and "beyond a joke". But last night's damning statement from the Royal College of Psychiatrists may be the fatal blow.

When politicians claim the public supports extreme measures like banning meat or digital ID you can be sure that behind it is a Citizens' Assembly or other dubious method for manufacturing 'consent', says Alex Klaushofer.

Greens have hijacked environmental concern and turned it into a branch of radical Leftist politics. But in truth conservatism cares about conserving our home. Conservatives need to reclaim green politics, says Sean Walsh.

Report of Rally in support of "Miss D"

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Thursday May 03, 2007 14:14author by Mark Nolan - WSM - Lucy Parsons (personal capacity) Report this post to the editors

This morning, 30 people took part in a solidarity action supporting "Miss D" in her case to be allowed travel abroad for an abortion.

Miss “D”, a 17 year old in the care of the HSE is four months pregnant with a child who has been diagnosed with anencephaly. The prognosis for individuals with anencephaly is extremely poor. If the infant is not still-born then he or she will usually die within a few hours or days after birth. By preventing “Miss D” from travelling the Irish government are defining women by their status as a uterine incubator rather than individuals entitled to basic human rights.

Leaflets (see attachment) were distributed to passers-by and the activists were encouraged by much support from passing drivers.

A further rally, organised by Choice Ireland takes place at the GPO on Saturday, 5th May at 12 noon. This is calling for legislation to cover the "X" and "D" cases, for the repeal of the 8th amendment and for free safe and legal abortion to be made available in Ireland.

Photos to follow.
