Royal College of Midwives Must Not Betray the Profession of Midwifery

Royal College of Midwives Campaigns for Abortion Up Until Birth for Any Reason: Not In Our Name!

On 9 February 2016, the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) announced their support for a campaign run by abortion provider the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS) calling for the legalisation of abortion up-to-birth for any reason. On 6 May 2016, the Royal College issued a position statement that explicitly supported the aims of this campaign, the limitation of conscience rights for midwives, and the extension of the Abortion Act 1967 to Northern Ireland.

Full details HERE.

Update [21.05.2016]

Far from backtracking on her call to abolish the 24-week legal limit for terminating pregnancy, the Chief Executive of the RCM says "Midwives should see abortion as part of their job". Had her mother exercised a choice to abort her foetus immediately before drawing breath, Prof Cathy Warwick, Chief Executive of the Royal College of Midwives would not be around to make such a preposterous claim without even consulting the midwives she represents.

Her excuse? "The role of the midwife is to support women in relation to their reproduction and to care for women." She denied there was any conflict between her role as Chief Executive of the RCM and her position as Chair of the board of trustees of the country’s biggest abortion provider the British Pregnancy Advisory Service, BPAS.

    I feel that I must make a comment : the most poignant thing I may say is that this posting makes me want to vomit.
    When there is discussion around the euthanasia of old people,my thought is that we must remember that every person is somebody's baby.
    It is impossible for me to understand the minds of those who are able to justify,even to contemplate ,the destruction of embryos,foetuses or babies - which ever term is applied to these humans.
    I dread to let my mind imagine that the late abortions will be a source for body parts for transplantation.
    Please readers make a relevant response to this evil.

    The poisonous Warwick woman has appeared on an IN campaign leaflet.
