The 185 peers who supported the decriminalisation of women aborting their babies up to birth

Our thanks to John for this:

“Mike,

Here is the list of all 185 unelected Peers in the House of Lords that voted to decriminalise women aborting their babies up to birth by voting against (“Not Contents”) amendment 424 proposed by Baroness Monckton of Dallington Forest, to leave out clause 208 in the Crime and Policing Bill. They won against the 148 Peers that voted against decriminalisation of abortion up to birth. 

This is a rogue Parliament hijacked by radical feminists, as only 1% of the British population support abortion up to birth, and not representative of the people. I would suggest people email Peers to let them know how they feel about their vote.  Or send each of them a postcard with the photo of a defenseless 8 1/2 month old baby who didn’t choose their death.

BBC’s ludicrous defence of its self-serving complaints system

An interesting piece by David Keighley for TCW. An extract:

“A BBC spokesman quoted in a Daily Telegraph article about the News-watch survey said: ‘The BBC has one of the most open and comprehensive systems for handling complaints in the UK media, regulated by a fully independent regulator in Ofcom, which in its most recent major research project found very high levels of satisfaction in our system. The vast majority of complaints are addressed and resolved at Stage 1 of the process, with only a small portion progressing to the Executive Complaints Unit for further consideration, so no meaningful comparison can be drawn from outcomes between the two stages. The ECU uphold complaints where they consider there to have been a breach of editorial standards.’

Both strands of that defence are disingenuous, outrageous tosh.”

In 2014 – 12 years ago – we published Our first official complaint to the BBC – a Newsnight episode on domestic abuse/violence breaches 50+ BBC Editorial Guidelines. Our complaint was rejected without explanation, our appeal likewise. We haven’t wasted our time submitting a formal complaint to the BBC since.

Islamic charity: ‘Mandatory for wives to do housework and serve’

Our thanks to Nigel for this. He writes:

“MGM just one of the areas where religion and culture collide with modern society. Unsurprising teaching in a Mosque from an Imam. Though I note that the NSS leaves out the bit, reported elsewhere, where he says Husbands are to work and support the wives and family specially female relatives. I suppose the entertaining part is the clash between “multiculturalism” and at the same time insisting adherence to an orthodoxy. One of which is although women have free choice to do as they will, it is still the husband’s responsibility to work and earn money to support the whole family, even if he’s kicked out of his home and excluded from seeing his children. So orthodox an idea that I suspect no one will object to the Koran’s teachings that men should be husbands and lead their family by supporting it through working hard.

The cheeky part of me wonders if the latest Green MP, a declared feminist and admirer of the “strong women” of the feminist movements. Has seen this and reflects on the “Muslim” block vote that put her there. Will there come a time when the price of that vole will be more than spouting slogans about Gaza? For instance Jess Phillip’s tarnished halo as it become evident, to the women themselves, that her crusade for “women and girls” doesn’t extend to those victimised by Grooming Gangs…. just in case the Muslim vote gets the extra few hundred votes that will lose her her seat. Turns out “multiculturalism” works in complex ways.”

The Jerusalem Post: “Infant hospitalized with severe herpes infection after circumcision involving direct oral suction.”

Appalling. An extract:

“The use of direct oral suction during circumcision has been the subject of medical and halachic (Jewish legal) debate for years. The Health Ministry has repeatedly warned against the practice and instructed mohels to use a glass tube or designated sterile device to avoid direct contact between the mohel’s mouth and the infant.

At the same time, the Interministerial Oversight Committee of Mohalim has stressed that mohels are required to inform parents of the risks associated with direct oral suction and obtain their explicit consent. Still, in some communities, the practice appears to continue despite the known dangers, sometimes without parents fully understanding the possible health consequences.

In 2012, the issue made international headlines after health authorities in New York documented a series of confirmed neonatal herpes cases linked to ritual circumcisions involving direct oral suction. In Israel, Schneider Children’s Medical Center also publicized similar cases, including two infants hospitalized in 2016 after contracting herpes in the circumcision area.”

Allison Pearson: “Britain is about to make a sickening change to the abortion law.”

A deeply moving piece in yesterday’s Telegraph. The start:

“I want to scream. We know that this far-Left Government, led by a strange, soulless prime minister would struggle to find a moral compass in a Sainsbury’s home geometry set. Until now, though, we may have clung to the hope that even Labour would draw the line at evil. Apparently not. If the test of a civilisation is how it treats its most helpless members then tomorrow evening [J4MB: This evening] we will find out whether Britain can still call itself civilised; or is this a country where bats enjoy more protection than babies?

The House of Lords will vote on Clause 208 of the Crime and Policing Bill which, if passed into law, means it would no longer be an offence for a woman to induce her own abortion at any stage of pregnancy for any reason (including not wanting a baby girl) and right up to birth.” 

The legislative change is expected to pass. Another extension of women’s unaccountability, to the “right” to kill unborn babies which are perfectly viable.
