An Irish MP is to take an abortion pill in Dublin to defy the continued ban on most terminations in the Republic.
The Socialist party’s TD Ruth Coppinger travelled to Northern Ireland on Tuesday along with 30 other pro-choice activists to buy abortion pills from the Marie Stopes clinic in Belfast.
The Irish state still bans abortion pills and last year the republic’s customs service seized more than 1,000 tablets that were posted from Britain and Europe to Irish women seeking to terminate their pregnancies.
