Choice

Rally for Choice!

The right of a woman to control over her own body is
a right still denied to women in Ireland. A hangover
of Catholic guilt and a succession of governments
who refuse to legislate for abortion, a fundamental
reproductive and health right, have left Irish women in a
powerless position – stigmatised and ignored.

On Saturday the 2nd of July a rally of ‘pro-life’ lobbyists
will take to the streets, we must counter them. We must
show that they are not the majority and that in reality
they are not pro-life, but anti-choice. We have six main
demands which we will be putting forward:

- Legislate for the X case as a matter of urgency.

- Free, safe and legal abortion on demand.

- Immediate closure of ‘rogue’ crisis pregnancy
agencies currently operating in Ireland.

- A comprehensive system of relationship and
sexuality education in all schools across Ireland.

- Access to affordable contraception and other
related sexual services.

- Equal rights for all families, be they ‘traditional’,
single-parent, LGBT or any other type.

So please join us in our demonstration and fight with us
for the rights of women and future generations
