We've marched. We've chanted. We've asked nicely. But we've had enough of waiting. We're taking the UK Government to court to challenge their failure to change the abortion law in Northern Ireland. We can't do it without you - we need to raise £10k! crowdjustice.com/nowforni

Alabama abortion law is utterly appalling. But remember- women in Northern Ireland still have no access to legal abortion care in their own country. We cannot condemn Alabama while women in the UK continue to be denied access. Email your MP now #nowforNI👉nowforNI.uk/email

We are disgusted by the recent Bill in Alabama. We know what it is like when men politicians debate our lives. This law is similar to that in NI, extensive prison sentences &only a risk to life exemption. Solidarity to #prochoice activists the world over! theguardian.com/us-news/2019…

A and B have progressed their case to the European Court of Human Rights. Funding is now available for those who travel, and we are so thankful to them for sharing their story and being a catalyst for change. #healthcarenotairfaire buff.ly/2Txmqwr

Watch @All4Choice's incredible #imalife video with @isobelanderson_ No one should be forced to travel to access the abortion care they need. Thank you to @Sharrow_irl for telling her story. #NowForNI #AbortionRightsNI #TheNorthIsNext youtube.com/watch?v=XHnPA9pR…

You can complain to the #BBC here: bbc.co.uk/complaints/complai… #Abortion has been legal in UK for over 50 yrs. It is the most commonly performed gynaecological procedure. 1 in 3 women will have an abortion in her lifetime. BBC should provide info. #CallTheMidwife #NotControversial

Read one of our activists Ashleigh's story of being denied an abortion after receiving a FFA diagnosis on #ValentineDay 2014. Please support our campaign to decriminalise abortion to make sure no one else has to go through what Ashleigh did. #Imalife buff.ly/2N6mC07

The conservative Govt. blocked an amendment that could have enhanced access to safe abortion in Northern Ireland. Why? To protect their relationship with the DUP Our member @PollyBarklem discusses how women* from Northern Ireland are always left behind👇🏽 londonirisharc.com/repeal-lo…
