Sally-Ann Hart: Do-it-yourself home abortion puts women and babies at risk, and ministers should end it

By Sally-Ann Hart MP | 29 January 2021 | 20 comments

By Neil O Brien MP | 27 July 2020 | 84 comments

We give you divorce reform, abortion law in Northern Ireland, citizenship rights for three million Hong Kongers, and the rainbow flag.

By Paul Goodman | 6 July 2020 | 213 comments

Ben Roback: Why America’s election may turn on jobs, immigration, abortion and China – not race, policing, justice and riots

By Ben Roback | 17 June 2020 | 18 comments

Jasvinder Sanghera: The new Northern Ireland rules that set a dangerous precedent on sex-selective abortion for the whole UK

These proposed changes suggest that Ministers’ resolve to address this type of abortion is weakening and, in Northern Ireland, evaporating.

By Jasvinder Sanghera | 15 June 2020 | 30 comments

Home abortions, sunset clauses – and the importance of votes in Parliament

Big changes to controversial social and political issues are ill suited to decisions made by Ministers and advisers behind closed doors.

By Paul Goodman | 1 April 2020 | 119 comments

John Hayes: The plan to impose abortion on demand on Northern Ireland by the end of this month – and why it should be stopped

To respect devolution, the UK Government must not impose such a drastic development on the Province. Is this a test run for England?

By Sir John Hayes MP | 18 March 2020 | 15 comments

How Trump made himself the champion of America’s Christian evangelicals

The authors of a new book trace the enduring influence of American Puritanism, and explain how the President appeals to it.

A sign of the times. The remarkable quiet that follows Labour’s commitment to decriminalise abortion up until birth

It is not only pro-lifers who might jib at the United Kingdom acquiring one of the most permissive abortion laws in the world. 

By Paul Goodman | 30 November 2019 | 65 comments

Northern Ireland Bill 1) Maria Caulfield: Damaging, opportunistic, anti-democratic. The Commons should reject these abortion amendments

By Maria Caulfield MP | 8 July 2019 | 73 comments

Ben Roback: The Democrats, gender, diversity, youth – and why Biden (76) may take on Trump (72)

By nominating him, they would be wagering a similar bet to the one they placed in 2016 when Clinton was selected as the safe candidate.

By Ben Roback | 22 May 2019 | 12 comments

Iain Dale: God help the UK Conservatives (so to speak) if they become religious fanatics – like the American Republicans.

Plus: The good and bad sides of Twitter – all in my week. How it may have helped to save a life. But also saw me slagged off for something I didn’t say.

By Iain Dale | 17 May 2019 | 162 comments
