Court: No Abortion Right in Ireland, Europe, But Attacks Ban

Strasbourg, France – The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights today unanimously reaffirmed that the European Convention on Human Rights contains no “right” to abortion.

That’s the good news for the pro-life movement, but the court also unanimously ruled in favor of one of the three women who brought a lawsuit saying the Ireland abortion ban violates their rights.

Sigh. Please get a news-source that actually understands why this case was brought and what it means for the current situation in Ireland where abortion IS legal in certain circumstances (a consequence of the Supreme Court decision in the X case) but successive governments have failed to legislate to give effect to that Constitutional decision.
