The National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI) receives millions of euros of taxpayers’ money to fund its operation.
They claim to represent all women but evidently do not.
At present, they are lobbying the Government non-stop for wider access to abortion in Ireland, including permitting gruesome late-term abortions on request.
The NWCI never represents the voices of women who regret their abortions or the majority of women who wish to see positive alternatives to abortion promoted.*
As a taxpayer, I strongly take issue with the fact that the NWCI is using my money to propagate its own narrow and exclusive agenda, while ignoring the views and life experiences of so many people that ought to be represented.
What’s being allowed to happen at present is shameful and undemocratic.
I wish to add my support to the call for the NWCI to have its public funds withdrawn to allow for something truly representative and accountable to take its place.
Yours sincerely,
*Amárach Research, October 2021
The National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI) claims to represent ALL, not just some women.
But on issues like abortion, they are arguably the most vocal group in the country pushing for late-term abortion on request to be legalised. They completely ignore the stories of women who regret their abortions and the majority of women who want to see positive alternatives to abortion promoted.
For more than 10 years, the NWCI, which receives millions of euros of taxpayers’ money, has been campaigning for abortion in the name of ALL women. It’s time to demand change.
By signing the petition below, you will be adding your voice to the call to defund the NWCI and start over with something better in its place.
In the coming weeks, the results of the petition will be forwarded to senior members of the Cabinet as evidence of the strength of feeling for change.
Thank you for your support!
