“All I can say in mitigation is a hollow sounding: Not in my name” 

Britain’s Parliament this week showed just how far out of touch with the electorate it has become, with a few honourable exceptions. After the votes on aspects of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill, Britain now has the most outrageously unprincipled regulation in Europe to try and keep mad scientists under any kind of leash.

All in the name of keeping Britain at the forefront of technology, says temporary Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

Where Mad Mengeles are not given license to breach centuries-old taboos about intermingling species, sentimentality has ruled. It doesn’t matter how egregious the breach of ethics, if there’s a glimmer of hope that in the dim and distant future one child might be offered the chance of a cure, it doesn’t matter how seriously we offend.

We already had the most inhuman abortion laws, with a 24-week maximum compared with continental Europe’s average of 12 weeks. We still have.  Our rulers now have enshrined the right of lesbians to receive state-funded treatment to create children without fathers. According to the bill’s supporters, the bill removes the need for doctors to acknowledge "the need for a father" when considering the welfare of any child that might be born, before offering fertility treatment. This removes “discrimination” from lesbian couples or single mothers seeking fertility help.

Cowardly government
You have to ask yourself just what kind of cowardly government doesn’t have the guts to say to lesbians, “Look, we don’t plan to interfere with your lifestyle because it doesn’t really do any harm, but if you think the National Health Service and the taxpayer is going to fund perverted activity by impregnating lesbians and guaranteeing children don’t have fathers, you’ve got another thing coming”. But of course the cowards in Downing Street can’t bear to offend, so they stay silent. Even the Tories go along with this mischief.

He was then simply murdered with the approval of the state.

It doesn’t take much exposure to the politicians of the left to see how inhuman and arrogant they are. Harridans like Labour’s fascist gauleiters Harriet Harman-Dromey and Dawn Primarolo defend “the woman’s right to choose” to justify killing unborn children. That disgusts me. This “right to choose” is a red herring seeking to somehow justify the unthinkable with echoes of human rights. Sure, there is a right to choose. That is the right to choose whether or not to have sexual intercourse. After that the die is cast, so to speak. Abortionists say women must have “control of their bodies” or “reproductive freedom”. The abortionists have got this out of kilter. This all should happen before sexual intercourse takes place; after that, no dice.  

Do they think that there is some kind of inbuilt, painless switch that you can turn if you decide that a pregnancy is no longer wanted?

Then we hear Labour politicians talking about how “the science” justifying a change from the 24 week maximum hasn’t been proven. This is simply repulsive, especially after listening to heroic Tory MP Nadine Dorries. She described, as a former nurse, in simple direct language, how she had cuddled a 24-week aborted boy who was struggling to breathe and live. He was then simply murdered with the approval of the state. Dorries said that just down the corridor at the same hospital, a child in a similar condition would receive all the fantastic technology now available and would almost certainly live. Don’t Labour politicians ever stop to think about the realities of abortion? Do they think that there is some kind of inbuilt, painless switch that you can turn if you decide that a pregnancy is no longer wanted?

To his great credit, Tory MP Edward Leigh fought the good fight for a 12 week maximum. Fat chance when you are surrounded by lefty-time servers who think that abortion rights are a badge of honour for their political cause; and not to mention spineless Tory handwringers. Then of course there is the truly awful Liberal Democrat Evan “Dr Death” Harris. The disgusting Harris lies about the “consensus” against lowering the limit at the British Medical Association (BMA) and certain nurses organisations, when he knows that there is a growing and massive majority of doctors who want nothing to so with this licensed killing.

Inhuman
Can you imagine how future generations will view us, when they wonder how we were so unconcerned about human life, and so full of talk about human rights, we failed to see the obvious crime? In the late 20th century and early 21^{st century}, Britons were so inhuman, so selfish, so without common decency, that they allowed 200,000 innocent unborn children to be ripped from their mothers’ wombs’ every year because it was inconvenient to go through with the pregnancy. Isn’t that diabolical? Isn’t that shameful? And we call ourselves civilised. All I can say in mitigation is a hollow sounding “Not in my name”.
