Educating students about all things sexual and reproductive health and campaigning for free, safe and legal abortion in Northern Ireland! #MSFCQUB#NowforNI
I wrote this for @All4Choice last year when no one had a clue what would unfold in October. I’m proud to have played my part in the campaign and now soon people will be able to receive compassionate healthcare here in NI. https://t.co/61uKYr2v3M #TheNorthIsNOW
Hey Ireland? Your new abortion law is sometimes a real piece of shit.
Signed, @AbortionSupport, the people sick of getting phone calls from the people falling through the cracks. #FreeSafeLegalLocal#NoOneLeftBehind
Fantastic support from bystanders at Rally for Choice yesterday. The future is one of choice for all regardless of ability to travel. Free, safe, legal, local. #abortionishealthcare#thenorthisnow

Patients should be able to trust health professionals without fearing prosecution. We look forward to a change in the legislation which will allow us to provide the highest standards of safe compassionate care #abortionishealthcare#thenorthisnow
WE DID IT!! Amendment passes, 332 to 99, forcing government to decriminalise abortion in Northern Ireland. THANK YOU @stellacreasy for leading on this tirelessly and to all who supported. #NOWFORNI#NOWITISHAPPENINGFORNI xxx
Wondering what the ideal punishment for abortion would be to keep anti choice people happy? Life? A couple of years? Community Service? And what would we do about childcare since it would mean 1/3 of (mostly) women would be in jail....
Legislation only for limited reasons reinforces the false dichotomy that there are 'good' & 'bad' abortions. Restrictions in legislation,and criminalisation,send a chill through the medical profession. Look at the recent Coombe hospital refusal&reduction in legal abortion in NI.
While we welcome recommendations from @NIHRC shared at the @EqualityCommNI#CEDAW event, and that reform is a key priority, unfortunately they fall far short of #freesafelegal & local abortion access. Abortion must be decriminalised&available for everyone who wants or needs one.
The WHO have published research on medical management of abortion. We are pleased to note the inclusive language, and the references to self managed abortion.
