It is with great sadness that I report to you that the SA Lower House passed the Termination of Pregnancy Bill 2020 last Friday 18 February.

ACL honours the efforts of those brave Liberal, Labor and independent MPs led by Minister David Speirs, Tom Koutsantonis, Steve Murray, Stephen Mullighan and Sam Duluk (and the Leader of the Opposition, Peter Malinauskas) who fought hard and achieved small but significant changes to the new SA abortion Bill, over two gruelling late night sittings.

Members of Parliament, in matters of conscience, must pay close regard to the views of their constituents.

What a joy to see almost 5,000 people clad in white, walking for precious unborn babies during the Walk for Life last Saturday! They delivered a clear message: viable unborn children are entitled to life and the Abortion to Birth proposal must be rejected.

I am constantly asked, so here are some thoughts and explanations on vaccines.

As the Abortion to Birth Bill moves to the Lower House for debate, I want to thank you for helping to oppose the Bill.

Those who care for the vulnerable, viable babies and little unborn girls and boys shone a bright light last night in the SA Upper House, the Australian Christian Lobby said today, praising the Hons Clare Scriven, Nicola Centofanti and Dennis Hood for contributions on the abortion to birth bill that will illuminate the Lower House debate in 2021.

The sad news of Meghan Markle’s miscarriage resonated deeply with many who have experienced the pain, my husband and myself included. Our third baby is represented in the statistic of one in around four pregnancies ending in miscarriage.

One of the greatest things a member of Parliament can do is to speak for the vulnerable.

Abortion to Birth involves the deliberate termination of a viable human being. That is never justified.
