“There was an attempt to pit women against men, rural Ireland against urban Ireland but truthfully, there is only one Ireland, a caring Ireland that trusts women” @SimonHarrisTD#together4yes#together4change
Dear Saoirse, you brave soul telling the nation how you walked around a strange city holding a hot water bottle against your tummy. We know there were lots and lots of other Saoirses who we abandoned. All you deserve is our apology #pklive#repealth8th
“If Savita’s pregnancy had been terminated two days beforehand, she would be alive. By waiting until she was in septic shock, she died. The fact that they listened to her heart rate the morning she died demonstrates fear of the 8th” Prof Sir Sabaratnam Arulkumaran #together4yes
This Friday, we have a once in a lifetime opportunity, a chance to make Ireland a safer, more caring country for all women and girls.
This Friday, we vote together.
Together to vote. Together for Yes.

The considered but certain — Yes.
