Ireland’s Taoiseach (Prime Minister) Enda Kenny has appeared
to cave in to the incessant demands of the Labour Party to legislate for abortion availability based on the so called “X-case''.
It has also been reported that Kenny has told his backbenchers they
must vote in favour of the legislation. Despite seriously held views and conscientious objection by many
of the major government party deputies there will not be a free vote.
The whole affair from the appointment of the so called
'Expert group’ to the delivery of its report and the aftermath has been an
example of cynical choreography by the abortion lobby and their Government
allies to deliver access to abortion.
The Government is now intent on legislating for abortion
despite the promises made by Enda Kenny before the last election.
In response to this distressing news all pro-life groups are
jointly promoting a pro-life vigil under the banner Unite for Life. There will
be no name of any group on the day, just a 'unite for life' vigil and all
pro-life people are not only welcome but are encouraged to come and bring their
friends. We want to show our politicians that their current strategy is
completely unacceptable
Unite for Life Vigil Tue 4th Dec 4.30pm at the Dáil
Please make every effort to attend. This cannot be stressed
enough. It will most likely be the only opportunity we get to send a united
message to the Government not to introduce abortion. The vigil will have a
positive, clear message about safeguarding the lives of mothers and babies in
pregnancy. Posters will be provided on the day.
Please, please spread the word to family, friends and anyone
you know.
For more details and bus information contact: Claire
0872668702 or Katie 0877020255.
See you @ 4.30pm sharp on Tues 4th.
Please promote this widely and ask your local parish to carry the notice in the blue text in your
parish newsletter. Please share with all groups...or other contacts
