"Kill the fetus" ban lifted in Ireland

RE: "Kill the fetus" ban lifted in Ireland
It's encouraging, but I wouldn't be surprised to see fuckwads copy America, and place unreasonable restrictions on abortions so that nobody can get one for 13 weeks.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

And looking at the result, impressively, only County Donegal voted against it, and even then, it was by a three point margin.

Shame it's only Southern Island but hopefully it will put pressure on the North.

The North is run by this asshole religious group that our Tory government got into bed with in order to maintain power.

Unlikely to happen. Ireland is a single entity nation, what the Dáil passes will be law across the land. And given the two to one result and the anti abortion campaign running against (a heavily distorted and often fictional) version of the peoposed 12 weeks without restriction anf afterwards only at risk of serious harm to the mother or nonviability of thefoetus, a lot of politicians will find that they wern't really against sbortion over the next few months (I'm guessing this is the referendum where the political class realises it's no longer 1982).

Part of county Donegal, actually. They hived off a well populated chunk of South East Donegal in the last electoral boundary revisions, which voted heavily Yes. While the constituency was 53% no the county was 53% yes.

No, the legislation is in hand in draft form. The "no" twonks will claim the flood of abortions as evidence of the slippery slope fallacy but in the real world there will be a spike in domestic abortions simply because there is no longer a need to export it to the UK. All of those will simply come home to roost.

The "No" idiots went on an agenda of there is no abortion in Ireland, good holy roman catholic Ireland. They failed to realise that abortion is happening all the time, from the trek to the UK to the handy drugs on the interwebs, to the coathanger in a back street.

Now, I am a bloke, so it isn't something that will ever impact on me. Why the hell should my status over-ride women's health? I can tell you why. Religion teaches that women are mere chattel, mere property. As are one's children. That is the problem. That is what needs to die in a fire

'Southern Island'?  Ireland is one island (not counting the fiddly bits round the edges).  If you meant 'Southern Ireland', it is my duty to inform you that there is no such place.  You mean 'The Republic of Ireland'.
