Ireland is preparing to follow France in offering free contraception to women under 25 years of age.

The French government introduced the measure on Jan. 1, while the Irish authorities have promised to make contraception free for women aged between 17 and 25 years from August.

French officials said that the change would apply to three million young women out of a population of 67.4 million people. Contraception is already free for minors (under 18s).

Along with Sweden, France has the highest total fertility rate of the 27 member states of the European Union, with 1.84 live births per woman, which is below replacement level.

Contraception was legalized in the country in 1967, followed by abortion in 1975. There are around 200,000 abortions a year.

Pascale Morinière, president of the Confédération nationale des Associations Familiales Catholiques (CNAFC), said that the government believed that free contraception would reduce the number of abortions among women under 25.

She explained that officials pointed to a precedent when free contraception was offered to girls aged between 15 and 18 years in 2013. The abortion rate fell within this age group from 9.5 to 6 per 1,000 from 2012 to 2018.

Free contraception instead of murdering babies? Yes!

Controlling oneself would be better but it isn’t like that’s going to happen these days.
 
Women areentitled to free contraception here in the UK. Its good but a bit sexist in my opinion. Men should get free contraception as well.You are entitled to the snip on the NHS. and they will reverse it if you change yourmind later.

I think free contraception is something the UK has had since the pill came out in the 60's though those in England may need to pay a prescription charge. Women can also get the morning after pill from the chemist. To not have free contraception is insane and something any country which has a problem with abortion should do.

I know in Scotland the US appears to have given their type the right to feel they can start to kick up which has resulted in the Government making it easier for abortion in some way and I have seen women going for abortions in Ireland, which is a very new thing, being harangued by men.

OMG concerning anti abortion abuse in Scotland

Most of these clinic protests appear to be organised by the Texas-founded group 40 Days for Life, which, for the past six years, has been holding two sets of 40-day protests a year – one during Lent, and one in the autumn. During these demonstrations, protesters stand with placards and leaflets and pray outside hospitals every day. Other protests tend to be organised by local anti-choice groups and by the international group Helpers of God’s Precious Infants.


American Right Christians several years ago set themselves the goal of ending homosexuality and abortion. They have been working particularly in Africa as there is more Christianity there. There they have certainly been successful in making the lives of gays hell but have been unsuccessful last I heard in getting them to accept abortion. Looks like they are going to try this all over the West now.
