UK pressure group spokesman to speak at HEAR launch
A UK pressure group spokesman says Manx abortion law is progressive.
Peter Williams from Right to Life will speak at the inaugural meeting of new Isle of Man campaign group Humanity & Equality in Abortion Reform - or HEAR.
It was established in response to pro-choice lobby group CALM, which is aimed at campaigning for improvements to the law.
Mr Williams will be joined by Lord Alton of Liverpool at a public meeting in the Manx Legion Club in Douglas at 6:30pm tonight.
He believes the UK needs to catch up with legislation here, not the other way around:
Person suffers 'significant injuries' in 'serious assault' near Peel
Business case for horse trams to be put before Tynwald in July
Plans to turn 'underused space' in central Douglas into wellness retreat
Employment grievance 'upheld' against board of Peel Commissioners
