Shocking:UK Government spends one MILLION pounds on flying women from Northern Ireland for abortions

Date: 5th April 2020

Since June 2017, the British Government has been funding women from Northern Ireland to come to Great Britain for abortions. Just how much taxpayers’ money has been spent on flying women over to have their unborn children killed has now been revealed.

It has been revealed just how much taxpayers’ money has been spent on flying women from Northern Ireland to Great Britain for abortions. Since June 2017, the UK Government has spent a staggering £1,000,000 on flying women over to have their unborn children killed.

Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) Helen Whately spelled out how this money is being spent: “The cost of supporting women travelling from Northern Ireland to England to access abortion services in 2018/19 was around £1.08 million. This includes the cost of the procedure and travel and accommodation. The cost of this scheme is met by the Government Equalities Office through funding provided by HM Treasury.”

What about women facing unplanned pregnancies who want support to keep their baby? These women are not getting this kind of free government money to make that sacrificial and empowering choice. Unless you agree to the killing of your baby, you won’t be awarded this kind of financial assistance. You won’t be helped or supported.

For many mothers, a thousand pounds could go a long way in lightening the burden of any immediate financial difficulties which often lead them to consider abortion. A thousand pounds could go a long way to a mother needing to pay bills or gather up baby supplies, but of course, the Government are only willing to “help” you if you abort your baby. The lazy and shameful answer to genuine crisis and need is to throw money at women to kill their babies.
