Why do I need to Vote for Life?

This General Election is literally a matter of LIFE and DEATH for unborn children in Northern Ireland. On Tuesday 22nd October 2019, the Westminster Parliament legalised abortion in Northern Ireland. Pro-abortion MPs exploited the political stalemate in the Stormont Assembly and undermined the democratic process by forcing on Northern Ireland, the most extreme and barbaric abortion regime in Europe. The abortion legislation is contained in Section 9 of the Northern Ireland Executive Formation Act 2019.

Due to pressure from the pro-life people of Northern Ireland, a last-minute attempt was made at Stormont on 21st October to pass a new N. Ireland Assembly law – the “Defence of the Unborn Child Act” – which would have stopped Westminster’s horrific abortion law coming into force. However, this attempt failed because Alliance Party, Green Party, People Before Profit, and Sinn Féin refused to attend; and the SDLP staged a “walk out” of the Assembly Chamber.

Overnight, Northern Ireland went from the safest place in Europe for unborn babies, to the MOST DANGEROUS PLACE in Europe for unborn babies.

Section 9 of the Northern Ireland Executive Formation Act 2019 allows:

• killing unborn babies, for any reason, up to the 7th month of pregnancy; 
• killing unborn babies, with disabilities, up to the moment of birth; 
• no ‘conscientious objection’ protection for doctors, nurses, and auxiliary staff, 
if they don’t want to take part in abortions;
• ‘exclusion zones’ outside abortion centres and hospitals, which will criminalise 
pro-life people praying or offering help to women.

It was the pro-abortion MPs in Westminster who instigated this abortion legislation. But it was the collusion and connivance of pro-abortion politicians in N. Ireland that allowed it to come into force. Sinn Féin, SDLP, Alliance Party, Green Party, and People Before Profit are all to blame for allowing this most cruel and extreme abortion law to be forced onto Northern Ireland.

On Thursday 12th December 2019 vote only for a Candidate who will REPEAL SECTION 9 of the NI Executive Formation Act and RESTORE full legal protection for ALL unborn babies in Northern Ireland.

The candidates in Northern Ireland are listed below.

The names of Pro-Life Candidates are highlighted in RED.
