Rescue America And Family Planning Clinics

EDM number 1700 in 1992-93, proposed by Brian Sedgemore on 29/03/1993.

That this House notes with alarm the arrival in Britain of members of Rescue America, the virulent anti-abortion group; condemns their threat to blockade family planning clinics in Britain and in the process to intimidate and harass staff at these clinics; calls on all right-thinking people, including honourable Members opposed to abortion and groups such as SPUC, to denounce the unlawful and murderous activities of Rescue America; and believes that the Home Secretary should treat members of Rescue America who act unlawfully or incite others to do so as undesirable visitors who should be deported.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
