Right to Life
SPUC Lobbying face to face with your MP is the most effective form of lobbying. Now that is it possible to do so, SPUC is holding a Mass lobby of MPs on Friday 16 July or Saturday 17 July 2021. We are asking pro-life supporters up and down the country to organise a meeting with their MP, at the MP’s constituency office, on one of these dates. We need to lobby MPs now to: - End DIY abortion
- Protect vulnerable people from assisted suicide.

Ask your MP to sign a Parliamentary motion to stop ‘DIY’ abortion
Carla Lockhart MP has launched a parliamentary motion calling on the Government to end ‘DIY’ home abortion. If ‘DIY’ home abortions become permanent, this will be a very big change to abortion provision that will likely lead to the loss of many more lives - and it is likely that this will have a strong negative impact on the physical and emotional health of women. It is therefore vital that as many MPs as possible sign Carla Lockhart’s motion to send a clear message to the Government that they must end dangerous ‘DIY’ home abortion services as soon as possible.
Right To Life UK has launched an easy-to-use tool which makes it simple for you to send an email to your MP asking them to sign the motion. This tool can be accessed here. You can also download a poster here.

RIGHT TO LIFE - As part of our efforts to spread pro-life news, we are now asking organisations to partner with us by including a link to our news service on their websites using the banner or one of the logos provided and the following link:www.righttolife.org.uk/news We have observed and grown concerned with some media outlets’ move to position themselves as journalists ‘campaigning’ for abortion access; the most recent example being the changes to the Guardian’s guidelines on how they report on abortion, a move that follows long-term bias from the BBC in their language guidelines. If this trend continues, it will become increasingly difficult for the mainstream public to be informed on the pro-life side of debates on issues such as abortion. By partnering with Right To Life News, you can ensure that you have access to reliable pro-life news - not limited by what editors in major newspapers choose to publish. ++++++++++++ Right To Life UK Home abortions.

In response to this, we are asking members of the public to take action and submit their views to the consultation. Right To Life UK has set up an easy-to-use tool on their website that makes it simple to complete your submission. This tool can be accessed here.
