Labor Left Insists: Safe, Legal and Rare Should Become Free and Compulsory
Delegates to Labor’s upcoming national conference will urge Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to provide free abortions across Australia.
Not only should abortions be free, but delegates from the powerful Emily’s List faction will insist that publicly funded hospitals be forced to provide them.
Oh, and the bus fare for women travelling to abortion providers from regional areas should also be borne by the taxpayer.
The policy recommendations will be made by Labor’s influential Emily’s List members including Tanya Plibersek, Anne Aly, Penny Wong, Linda Burney and Katy Gallagher — who a few years ago successfully pushed for women’s quotas within the Party.
Have you noticed that the Left typically believe everything should either be free, or illegal?
That’s the immovable binary of the non-binary crowd.
As for the slippery slope — wait, I mean WATER SLIDE — of abortion policy… well, first we said it should be safe, rare and legal. Now we say it must be free.
And the taxpayer will drive you there if you need a ride.
Totalitarianism
Oh, and if you’re a Catholic hospital that has been providing care and assistance to people in need for the past 100 years, start doing abortions or we’ll shut you down. And provide euthanasia while you’re at it. If you’re going to end the lives of babies, you might as well end the lives of seniors while you’re at it. What’s the difference?
And don’t think we’re joking.
If we can take over Calvary Hospital in Canberra because of its “problematic” views, don’t think we won’t take over every other Christian institution that fails to sign up to the death cult.
Also, love, tolerance and inclusion.
Irony
Imagine arguing that killing a baby in the womb should be free for everyone, but infertile couples wanting to build this country via IVF must pay around $10,000 per cycle.
Attempt to arrest the declining birth rate, and you’ll get zero help from the government.
But ensure we have so few people being born that we need to continually ship in hundreds of thousands from overseas, and the government will pay to pick up your cab fare.
If the motions, to be put to the conference in August, win the support of a majority of delegates, they will become part of Labor’s policy platform for the next term of parliament.

Surrogacy is often discussed through the hopes of adults seeking children. Meet the woman, born to a surrogate herself, who says the debate should begin instead with the experiences of surrogate mothers and children separated at birth.
Maybe the murderous policy recommendations will be rejected, thus showing Australians that the Labor Party values unborn babies after all!?
Maybe Emily’s List could have a sub-title “Murder she wrote.”
