    Abortion ship to sail again, is Dublin destination?

    Times, April 25th
    Offshore abortion women's group is given licence again

    An “abortion ship” is planning to sail to countries where the practice is illegal and take women out to sea for terminations after the Dutch Government lifted restrictions banning it from international waters.

    Under the terms of its licence, the group is [again] able to sail under the Dutch flag in international waters and hand out “abortion pills” for women up to seven weeks pregnant, causing them to have a miscarriage.

    We are in touch with women’s organisations in several different countries. There are still three countries where abortion is illegal in Europe

    The abortion boat visited Ireland in 2001 and Poland in 2003
    So will it get here in time for election ? If we can have an abortion ship why not one for smoking pot or even an e-party ship ?

    Hopefully it'll be here in time to abort possible PD supporters.

    If a woman travels to a ship or a different country. What difference will it make?

    What a poor attempt at a joke. A shockingly bad sense of humour......... You must be an FG supporter?

    Yes of course it does! Dublin is in our back yard but Manchester is far away!

    Jesus, do I have to explain everything to you!

    I wonder will Stellios set up a low-cost rival?
    The political establishment lacks both vision and courage.
