As Fianna Fail flounders during another farcical term in government, devoid of ideas, dignity and any sense of even a hint of patriotism, yet another one of its so called ‘prolife’ names has ‘converted’ to the anti baby cause.
As with the spineless and bland Jack Chambers, Anne Rabbitte has now joined the pro abortion cause which just so happens to look like an exercise in sycophancy ahead of an expectant cabinet reshuffle. But we are sure that that is not the intention of either of these anti charisma politicians.
Rabbitte has bizarrely claimed that ‘Mother and Baby Homes’ were a factor in her changing her mind to a pro abortion position. Not just any pro abortion position, one that supports anti prayer zones and a more extreme abortion law. Perhaps those who maintain the possibility of Fianna Fail ever becoming a prolife party again will now see that there is no future for prolife people within this repulsive organisation.
Incidentally, under her government, homelessness of mothers has skyrocketed. As has that of their children. Domestic violence skyrocketed last year, with 10% more calls than the previous year. Inevitably, many of the men engaging in domestic violence are also those forcing women to have abortions, though Ireland’s abortion regime has comically sparse public data available on abortion.
In a Red C Poll released this week, it was revealed that a whopping 70% of 18-24 year olds are considering leaving the country under Fianna Fail's chaotic leadership. It is not hard to see why.
After collapsing birth rates by 25% in a decade, the apparent eagerness of Ireland's elites for lowering the substantial, rather than superficial, quality of life of its people continues unabated.
For the prolife movement, it is an incredible blessing to lose politicians like Anne Rabbitte and Jack Chambers. The commitent of Fianna Fail to anti family policies is a stain that all prolife people must eschew. This Fianna Fail government are the enemies of families, the enemies of hope and the enemies of a fair and decent society that cherishes rather than discards the filial unit.
As with Chambers, Rabbitte's daft half baked statement calling for a more extreme pro abortion law is perfectly apt for a party that exists for itself and for its paid staff, not for the Irish nation.
Those remaining prolife voices in Fianna Fail would really want to ask themselves what exactly it is that they are staying for.
