 The Polish governing conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party are backing a bill put forward by the Stop Abortion lobby

  that would make abortions except where the mother's life was at risk punishable by 3 to 5 years in jail.

 Polish women are holding large protests in Poland and in other cities including London

 Some men have come to support them, but all the speakers were women

 KOD is the omitet obrony demokracji, committee for democracy

  'Irish Women for International Reproductive Rights'
 
 

 

'Repeal the 8th' (the 8th Amendment to the Constitution by the Irish Parliament was voted into the constitution in 1983 

and gives the foetus equal rights to life with the mother, banning abortion.)
