I wondered if anyone else had seen this article. (I hope the link works, I've never shared one before.)

Realistically, living in the UK, what can I do to protest this.

Oh FFS. I only read half the article and had to close it from the rage that's pumping through my veins

I hate this world sometimes.

Aye - That is exactly how I felt reading this. I honestly don't know what I can do to fight it though.

I've just seen this too. Rage-inducing.

Blessed be the fruit indeed

Blessed be the fruit, indeed.

Cross post!

This isn't what you want to hear I'm sure paddy, but I feel like giving up. I cannot believe the bills that are being passed at the moment against women. It's so depressing and I'm starting to feel a bit defeated.

I know Aye. I follow a few feminist pages on FB and I'm wondering whether I should stop because it makes me so made to see this bullshit.

I read this today too and tbh am finding it difficult to process. I haven't got much beyond WTF?! Once I have, I may be able to formulate something more helpful. But yes, protest in some form is vital I think.

When they say 'people', they actually mean 'women', dont they. What birth control would men use that would include them in this?
How easy is it to move to a different State in the USA? If you are low income it can be almost impossible in the UK.

Another WTF from me! America is going mad, completely fucking mad.

They do mean women DJBaggy you're right. Feministing are being a bit disingenuous about that.

I know a lot of these anti abortion people back in the states. It is very weird talking to them. To me it feels like a sort of psychosis. There are probably a hundred million of them.
