The vote is 68 to 32 in favour of Yes and so it’s official. They announce this afternoon according to The Independent

I know, right. The Catholic Church have certainly lost a lot of respect after numerous grooming and abuse reports.

It's a good day for Ireland and another example of how far behind the people politicians always are.

But as ever not for all Ireland.

In Northern Ireland women are still being persecuted and prosecuted by the state for what is a matter of personal choice or in some cases life or death

I disagree strongly with your comment.

In Ireland pregnant women whose babies are not going to live at all after birth due to birth defects ect, currently are forced to carry that pregnancy to full term and give birth to a dead baby. That is truly disgusting and very very distressing for all parties concerned. It's not all about killing babies you know.

Also lady's commit suicide sometimes because they can't get an abortion.

Whilst I disagree with abortion as a form of birth control, I think women should have a choice. Most terminations are carried out early in the pregnancy, then it's a foetus not a baby.

The fact that woman could have potentially been abused/atacked,had an abortion and served a longer sentence than the abuser,is all wrong.

You could I suggest try taking a ‘ real world’ look at it ? It is highly unlikely that people will leave it for 12 weeks ! That is in extreme cases I suggest where women simply were not aware they were pregnant .

In ‘ normal’ situation it would happen much sooner and argue as much as you like but that is not a baby ! More than a collection of sperm being ejaculated is half of a one ! Neither are ‘ murdering’ anything .. simply a non sentient collection of cells and if it solves a lot of frustration or heartache then frankly am all for both of them ..

Although the law already allowed abortion in those circumstances, nor would the Catholic Church even disagree with your decision due to the principle of double effect. So non-issue I'm afraid, nobody is arguing for women to die instead of babies.

I'm not entirely closed to the point you are making, i do believe in a grey area that in my mind, the morning after pill deals with nicely (available and effective up to 5 days afterwards in Ireland). So you agree the UK limit of 24 weeks is too long? Where would you draw the line if not 12 weeks?

Surely it depends on circumstances. Would you force a pregnancy go full term for a rap e victim? What if scans identify a problem that means the baby would not survive to full term? Would you force a woman to carry the baby then have to give birth to a dead baby?

Abortions are not handed out like contraception. You still need to prove that there is a risk to the health and/or mental well being of either the mother or the foetus.

I'm afraid abortions are primarily used as contraception. It's very easy to google the data on reasons for abortions and you will find that all the instances of r*pe, in*est and health problems add up to less than 10% of the reasons.

No i do not wish women to carry dead babies, mothers to die in childbirth or pregnancy, or babies to be born with minimal chance of a quality of life (i do not include downs syndrome in that statement though). But let's just be honest about the majority of cases, before we drift off into the fringe ones.

I had an abortion as contraception. It was an accident that happened and I exercised my right to choose. I’m very happy that I did. I’m very happy that option is there for other women, and now for the women of Ireland.

I think the job of the state is the protect the most vunerable from the tyranny of the majority. There is nothing more vunerable than the unborn. Hence i would not afford you that right and i don't think it can be morally justified. But others have and therefore, in the real world, it was your right as you say.

That’s a convincing majority, too. Good stuff.

I would never ‘celebrate’ an abortion. It’s an awful thing to have to do. However, on balance, it’s better for that to happen in a safe, controlled, humane way, than to force people to see it through, and cause unhappy lives.

It’s for that same reason that I’m pro-euthanasia. Anti-death-penalty, anti-fox-hunting, fuck, I even capture spiders in a glass and put them out the front door. I don’t revel in death, but at times I see the argument for that difficult decision being taken.

Having had my children I know that having more is not something I want. While I take all reasonable precautions to avoid falling pregnant I know I would have no hesitation in making the decision to terminate if I did.

I am thankful that I'm able to make that choice and to control what happens to my body and for my family. No woman should have to go through a pregnancy if she doesn't want to. Regardless of her reasons. And no woman should be judged harshly for her decision.

Ok so start with "abortion statistics, England and Wales 2016" by the department of health because that's the most objective you'll get. As a result you sacrifice detail. The grounds for abortion are A - G with some being grounds that even the Catholic Church would agree on (A) to the contraception reasons C / D.

There's a study of 1,209 abortion patients called "Reasons U.S. Women have Abortions: Quantitative and Qualitative Perspectives". You may find a source biased, but I've honestly never even seen the 'pro-life' lobby contest the reasons and try to pretend that even a quarter of abortions happen for health or consent reasons.

The opinions on this issue are not really divided by gender if you care to fact check yourself. Furthermore, a lot more girls get aborted than boys worldwide. Your poor attempts to attack my sex just show you have nothing objective to say against the points i make.

No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life.

I just can't do the mental gymnastics required to get enthusiastic about killing a 12 week old baby. Funny how most the population get upset about killing foxes too.

Abortions are not handed out like contraception. You still need to prove that there is a risk to the health and/or mental well being of either the mother or the foetus.

Are you like one of those pro lifers?

Sorry i don't do identity politics. I'll make my own position based on facts and evidence.

Your arrogance on an issue that affects women first and foremost is funny but not surprising.

You’re hilarious. I’m pretty sure if there was a thread about how it feels to have a vagina, you’d still feel the need to argue about something

Oh, and just because more males get aborted, that does not make this a gender neutral issue. It’s very much at the forefront of women’s rights. Of course, I’m not saying men can’t have an opinion on the matter.

If you look at the proportion of men and women who do and don't support abortion, there's actually not much difference. Besides the real debate isn't 'should there be any abortions' - it's about when and the reasons. Oh and I'm fully in support of tougher sanctions on dead beat dads by the way.

"No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life."

I agree that it’s a moral problem. I disagree that it’s a simple one. You’ve highlighted two issues already, the first of which is highly contentious, and the second of which is an oversimplification of the many arguments for and against. However, since it is a moral question, and morals are subjective, you can’t just frame it as a black and white as you have.

For what it’s worth, I’m not going to tell you that I think you’re wrong for falling on the side you have. You’ve clearly made an informed decision. But I won’t ‘just accept’ that you are right, either, because I see the questions in a different light.

This is brilliant news. Is good that people can make their best choice on their own situation and not get to be forced into one course of action. I have no time for this idea that women shouldn't be allowed to choose. I know people like to split hairs and justify their stance when it comes to women choosing but it's not the sort of decision that is taken lightly and what the fuck has it got to do with the people judging anyway? I bet the people crying get up-tight if someone parks outside their house.

"No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life.

I think most people think of the answer they want and then try and reverse engineer some logic. I really can't think of any system of morals that would allow one human to kill another human for convenience. So the real question is about when life starts. Having a planned child and tracking the pregnancy, literally daily, showed me that there isn't necessarily a fixed answer to that question but from my point of view it's definately not more than 12 weeks but I'd also say it's more than 1 day.

The 24 week cut off is important as a lot of abnormalities don't get picked up until the 20 week scan. I think very few terminations at this stage would be for anything other than medical reasons

24 weeks is a baby that would be more likely than not, to survive outside the womb. So the logic in support of that abortion at that age must be that you're not a human if someone elses skin is surrounding you. I don't find that convincing.

I knew the gender of my child age 9 weeks.

At 12 weeks they have a heart beat, look pretty human and are moving around in there.

However i do accept that there is a very high rate of natural miscarriage between 0-12 weeks. Nobody knows for sure but somewhere between 20-50% of pregnancies. Therefore, i think that saying the morning after pill is an abortion or a murder is over extending the claim because there's a reasonably high probably that no life would have ever occurred.

Do you really expect me to believe it takes 12 weeks to find out you are 'accidentally pregnant'? Give me a break and reply to what I've actually said rather than a strawman. I said the debate is about reasons and timing, even the Catholic Church doesn't argue against 100% of abortions.

It's quite clear that what you believe isn't the same as others. But yes people can go to 12 weeks without realising. And let's not get into what the Catholic church agree with.

Well you thought wrong. In england and wales 2016, there were 3,033 babies killed / aborted after 20 weeks. A fetal abnormality abortion is a grounds E, which represented 1,069 of those (35%). The mothers being in any serious danger of dying 27 (0.9%).

In the U.K., you’re not legally a human until you’re born. I’m not saying that’s the definitive answer, but it’s one that’s been reached after numerous debates. I fully understand why people reach different answers.

For the sake of argument, there are systems of morals that allow the killing of whole groups of people ‘for convenience’. They’re not systems of morals that most of us agree with, but they’re there.

Again, though, I think that it’s oversimplification to just label it as ‘convenience’. While I’m sure most made the right decision, I doubt many women would find the physical, emotional and psychological process ‘convenient’.

Yes, there are, I know, but they are not convicted of murder, in which the definition of a ‘person’ is someone where they are no longer attached by umbilical chord and are surviving independently of the mother. You just need to look at the fact that Human Rights; most notably (and aptly, in this instance) Article 2, does not extend to unborn babies.

I do wonder if 24 weeks is too late to abort, it seems very far along. However, I don’t really know enough about the development to be able to say for certain.

Thankyou for those stats

What gestation would you like to see it reduced to?"

Well that's the million dollar question isn't it. There's my personal answer as a private citizen who is a nobody, which is lower than what I'd honestly push for if i was an MP making the law, which would be 8 weeks for a ground C abortion (97% of them) of which 82% already happen before 9 weeks anyway. Grounds A and E, i wouldn't change.

I find 8 weeks to be enough shades of grey morally and to give people with genuine acciental pregnancies sufficient time. A pregnancy test is a few quid and accurate after 10 days. However, i also believe it's something that can't be done in isolation. For example, meaning that there would also need to be better adoption services for women who did not wish to raise the baby after pregnancy. I'd also like to see much harsher treatement of men that don't pay their child maintenance.

What time limit would you put on it?

I knew the gender of my child age 9 weeks.

At 12 weeks they have a heart beat, look pretty human and are moving around in there.

I’m guessing to survive, it would more than probably need medical intervention though? If so, I’m wondering if it can actually be claimed that they’d survive.

Because there are real premature births that actually happen at that age. The earliest surviving baby was 21 weeks.

I’m guessing they need medical intervention though?

Yes but i don't find that a very important point. No baby is going to survive without round the clock care from someone.

Medical intervention to survive is very different to keeping a baby alive via feeding and nurturing. "

Why? Are old people any less human when we prolong their lives with medical interventions?

It's pointless arguing with the anti-choice viewpoint

They can dislike abortion and rant and rave about it as much as they like. They will never influence the law. It is a womans right to have an abortion whether they like it or not

But it's only a right because people argued for it. If it had been argued that they have no right to it you would be the one ranting and raving. Informed debate about this issue should be welcomed. "

And argued correctly for it supported by scientific and medical research. It wasn't a simply for versus against debate. Informed debate is a bit like banging your head against a brick wall for the anti-choice camp I would imagine. Trying to make women feel bad by using infactial terms seems the best they can come up with. That is not informed debate. The majority of women who have had a termination are totally comfortable with their choice so trying to bully them or make them feel in some way guilty is futile really

"No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life.

So if a woman becomes pregnant accidentally you think she should be forced to carry it and give birth to it against her will??

I know at least 3 people who havent known they were pregnant until quite far gone. It does happen. Just because you don't believe it or haven't experienced it doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

I know it happens, i just don't think it's morally justifiable to set the law around them. It's not exactly difficult to take a pregnancy test if you've had unprotected sex or missed a period.

The 24 week cut off is important as a lot of abnormalities don't get picked up until the 20 week scan. I think very few terminations at this stage would be for anything other than medical reasons

What were the remaining reasons?"

The UK data doesn't demand a reason per se, grounds C is basically a catch all term for 'the mother doesn't want it' which translates to 'it's bad for her mental health'. Try disproving that. If you look at american studies where they explicitly asked a reason then ~90% of abortions are primarily because the baby is some sort of inconvenience to the mother. Which i find odd because nobody is arguing that the mother should be forced to raise the child.

"Hurray for killing babies

Now if we can have a referendum on euthanasia then we can knock off some of the elderly who inconvience us.

Always one comment like this

The poster who made the comment usually has a dry sense of sarcastic humour, I'm sure he meant it as such.

I just can't do the mental gymnastics required to get enthusiastic about killing a 12 week old baby. Funny how most the population get upset about killing foxes too.

Yup, just like the term "pro-choice" which i find disgusting. But here are the most common reasons, verbatim:

"Having a baby would dramatically change my life"

"Can't afford a baby right now"

"Don't want to be a single mother or having relationship problems"

"Have completed my childbearing"

Actually i feel very sorry for women who have abortions, especially after 8 weeks. I think they have been fed a bunch of lies and half truths, as is evident from this thread. It's not like anyone is actually using facts and figures against me.

So there are no hungry children in the world, no neglected, abused, unwanted children! Someone making an informed choice prior to giving birth is a responsible one.

Have a read of the statistics of what happened to the children that went into the care of religious order's and digest those facts.

I haven’t used the term, although disgusting is not a phrase I would use. I’m guessing it’s because the foetus / unborn baby doesn’t have a choice. It’s also incapable of making a choice.

As for the reasons, even those four sentences are massively simplified representations of people’s lives and circumstances. There quite possibly are people out there callous xnd shallow enough to lightheartedly have an abortion just for the sake of it, but for a cynical arsehole who hates the world, I’ve also got more faith in most people making this decision.

Valid points, which is why i said you can't look at this in isolation. The majority of adoptions are successful and that's in a world where most adoptions aren't voluntary. Logically, if there were more voluntary adoptions then the vast majority would be successful. Institutional care is almost always a disaster, i agree.

38% of women having an abortion have had one before. How many times does lightening stike in the same place. I haven't argued to stop all abortions and let people suffer, i think human life is not something to be so easily discarded.

Where are the facts to back up the statement of successful adoption. I agree institution state based care is not a solution. I have seen first hand heart breaking examples of unsuccessful adoptions and fostering due to a system that isn't working well, has poor supports but more importantly is flooded with cases of children that can not be accommodated.

"No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life.

I do wonder if 24 weeks is too late to abort, it seems very far along. However, I don’t really know enough about the development to be able to say for certain.

The 24 week cut off is important as a lot of abnormalities don't get picked up until the 20 week scan. I think very few terminations at this stage would be for anything other than medical reasons

Yes, of course. I forgot about the 20 week scan being so important

My sisters doing her masters in psychology and counselling and some other letters that I can't remember but part of her placement for uni is she works for new pathways both in the sexual assault referral centre and in window to the womb. In window to the womb she has to tell expectant mothers about any anomalies they've picked up and give them their choices, like downs is not easy but a lot of women still choose to have the baby but some of the birth defects they don't have a choice, missing limbs and organs and serious things like brains growning outside the skull and stuff, it's heartbreaking I can only imagine but it is your understanding that they would only ever let you abort at 24 weeks for reasons as serious as that cos in this day in a age you really would notice if you were pregnant before that time and could deal with it earlier. My friends baby was severely prem, 26 weeks and was in scbu for months but she's now 10 years old and you would never know. I was 9 weeks when I had my termination and I was only 21 and doing my pregnancy after that with my daughter and checking on babycentre every week for the development as I knew from 5 weeks, that was hard but no one has the right other than the pregnant person to decide what they are and aren't capable of doing.

All the pro life stuff is bollocks.

You’re making completely emotive claims. If your reasoning isn’t coming from a very personal place, then I really don’t understand why you’re so intent on arguing with everyone.

I've made zero emotive claims unless you think human rights is just an emotive claim

How can one differentiate between a baby and fetus? Both have beating hearts, limbs, a head n body, even a brain. At what point is a fetus a baby? Don't for get, both are a human being!

"The facts are that the overwhelming majority of abortions are not cases of ra*e, in*est or health problems. There is no interpretation required for that. "

I don’t particularly care about that one. It has next to no bearing on my general stance on abortion.

A foetus legally becomes a human being when it's born.

"No i this is actually a very simple moral problem. Ask yourself when a foetus becomes a human and then accept that convenience is not a moral justification for ending a human life.

I do wonder if 24 weeks is too late to abort, it seems very far along. However, I don’t really know enough about the development to be able to say for certain.

The 24 week cut off is important as a lot of abnormalities don't get picked up until the 20 week scan. I think very few terminations at this stage would be for anything other than medical reasons

Yes, of course. I forgot about the 20 week scan being so important

All the pro life stuff is bollocks.

What's bollocks is the statement you just made which i have already debunked with official statistics on this thread. "

What's bollock about what I just said. My sister works in window to the worm her primary job is 4d scanning women who have been referred as having suspected anomalies with previous scans and with the technology they use they can see what they are. When the baby is downs it will still be a lovely baby and women still choose to continue the pregnancy but some defects are so severe that there's no chance the baby would live so they have to abort, or carry a dying or dead baby to term and then give birth to a still born which would be even more horrific.

I don't know what part is bollocks?

I knew what I was capable of when I was 21 and having a baby then I wouldn't have coped. That's my cross to bare. I don't really understand how you are in a position to say that I should have had that baby when you don't know the circumstances.

"Adoption is not a solution to an unwanted pregnancy

It is. Don't sell the lie that most women are going to walk away from a 12+ week abortion with no issues. By allowing someone to adopt your baby you are doing a wonderful thing.

It's not

If a woman does not want to be pregnant, carrying the baby to term and delivering it is not a solution. Can you not understand that??

No i cannot understand how any moral code can justify one human killing another because they find them inconvenient.

I definitely think human rights can be an emotive.

How dare people judge another persons own choice... So many times I've seen pro life protesters outside the hospital, throwing blame and guilt at women who have had to make a brave choice, a choice made for themselves. Nothing wrong in that choice

The part about they only let you do a late abortion for serious reasons is bollocks. I already provided the stats on that and it was 36% serious reasons.

Hey, BrokenBrilliance - It’s totally possible to have a debate without being so aggressive and insolent.

"I've made zero emotive claims unless you think human rights is just an emotive claim "

It could be argued that applying human rights to a being which has no human rights is emotive.

"How can one differentiate between a baby and fetus? Both have beating hearts, limbs, a head n body, even a brain. At what point is a fetus a baby? Don't for get, both are a human being!"

Well, not in the eyes of the law. Nobody is saying that it’s not a difficult question. Is a newly fertilised egg a human being? Most agree that it isn’t. Deciding when it is, as you’ve rightly identified, isn’t easy.

After having kids, after having miscarriages, i cant celebrate the killing of a baby. Unless it's for medical reasons I'm with the shouldn't be allowed crowd.

We’re not celebrating abortion. We’re celebrating the right to choose
