Quite a number of years ago now there was vote held in Ireland about making abortion legal, the majority of the public voted no. In recent years though a nuber of statistics have been put out there about the number of young Irish girls and women who were going to England and The Netherlands in order to have abortions. One particular article I remember reading stated that on average 13 women A DAY were going to these countries to have one done. In light of this do you think it time for it to be made legal here. Whether or not the government and some of the people disagree with it is not the issue, the fact of the matter is that it is a reality in Irish society, even if the girls have to travel outside the country to do it.
