Tell your MEPs to vote no to pro-abortion report
SPUC is calling on all pro-lifers to contact their MEPs, asking them to vote against a forthcoming report to be debated and voted on in a European Parliament plenary session, either between 18-21 November or 9-12 December. The report is called “Draft Report on Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights”. As ever with such reports, there are a few good sections, but the vast majority is deeply harmful and must be rejected: attacks on unborn children, school-aged children, the family, and the right of conscientious objection. [SPUC, 16 October]
