The US anti-abortion movement is coming to the UK - Jessica Valenti

Video        Comment is Free        The Guardian        6 May 2015

 

The terrifying American anti-abortion movement

is exporting its tactics to the UK.

 

The global anti-chioce movement

is looking to the United States for clues,

which Jessica Valenti argues

couldn't be worse news for women abroad.

 

From 'crisis pregnancy centres'

that mislead women

to disruptive protestors outside clinics,

is obtaining an abortion becoming so hard to get

that it might as well be illegal?

Fifty years on from the Abortion Act,

‘the service in England

is almost at the point of self-destruction’.

Meet the people fighting to keep Ireland's abortion ban

Video    G    13 May 2018

 

Many Irish people see the abortion referendum

as a crossroads.

 

Ireland could say yes

and turn towards the liberal values of the EU,

while a no vote would defend its Catholic conservatism.

 

Phoebe Greenwood went to Limerick

to meet voters who want to save the eighth amendment

and ask where they think the referendum

will leave Ireland’s national identity
