We remember 60,000 babies aborted on the 8th anniversary of Repeal

On the anniversary of abortion, we gathered yet again to remember those whose voice was stolen from them by the ugly reality of Repeal.

Calls for inquiry: 108 babies born alive then die after abortion

It is "barbaric" that 108 babies were born alive after abortion between 2019 and 2023 in Ireland, and that those who could have received life-saving interventions were 'clearly then left to die', a leading pro-life group has said, in a call for a full inquiry on "what is happening in relation to abortion provision in Ireland".
