Ah, how I dispise all those bastards in the Catholic hierarchy that think this is an acceptable state of affairs.  No country is perfect, but the imposition of medieval superstitions on a modern western country would be shocking beyond belief, were it not a widely recognised fact.

When will the Irish grow up and demand that abortion is legalised?  Surely it can't be long, given the rapid decline in religious belief in Ireland and across the world.  Tragically it will be too late for Praveen Halappanavar, whose young wife is dead.
