Well well well, the government has unvieled a $51 million dollar hotline for pregnant women to try and fight Australia's increasing abortion rates. A win for the good guys you might say? Lets not give each other hand-jobs just yet.
I'm a Liberal voter and love everything Johnny has done for this country. I am however, ever sceptical of christians who have power. Howard and Abbott lost round one when they were out-voted on RU486, I'm now worried that a week later they come out with this new hotline to compliment the availability of the drug. My worry? These guys have sought to specifically exclude those trained professionals already in the (inherently pro-choice) system... who just happen to be working in abortion clinics. Why? Take out the guys who are pro-choice, replace them with government controlled shrinks who have to abide by the politician's agenda. Counselling or advocacy... this could become a very hazy line in the wrong hands.
