Abortion Rights protest imageA quick reminder to London readers: Abortion Rights is calling for people to come out in force this evening, for a protest against efforts to restrict access to abortion.

This is a protest against Ann Widdecome's 'Not on your life...' roadshow, which the Tory MP is dragging up and down the country to promote 'pro-life' amendments to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill which would chip away at women's rights.

Similar protests will take place when the roadshow hits Liverpool, Coventry and Cardiff - see the Abortion Rights website for more info. The group has also produced a detailed briefing on the bill's progress through Parliament, and efforts to tack on anti-abortion amendments.

Here is a flyer with directions and more information.
