Childers demands abortion rights in Ireland – European Parliament

The Independent MEP Nessa Childers today called for abortion rights to be introduced in Ireland. The Dublin MEP says that it is no longer acceptable that women in Ireland have to go to the UK to terminate a pregnancy. She said such a situation is an ‘appalling evasion of responsibility’.  Speaking at the European Parliament Ms Childers said the eighth amendment should be repealed and that women in Ireland should have the right to terminate a pregnancy in Ireland.
