We can no longer stand by while women in #NorthernIreland are forced to travel to England for abortion care during #covidー19, despite the fact abortion is now legal in NI.
That's why today we have launched a telemedical service to send NI women abortion pills by post. #NowForNI

We will run the service in collaboration with healthcare professionals in #NorthernIreland, for women up to 10 weeks of pregnancy.
Anyone in NI who needs our service can call 0300 500 8086 to arrange a teleconsultation with a doctor in Northern Ireland. #Pillsbypost #NowforNI

"My husband and I were expecting our second child. We were told at our 12 week scan at the end of August 2018 that there was a problem. They suspected that it was anencephaly. This is a fatal condition where the babies skull and brain do not develop.
Most of these pregnancies will continue to full-term and the babies will die during labour or within hours of being born. I couldn't fathom continuing with a pregnancy for another half of a year.
We’re so pleased that NC10 passed in the House of Commons today. There are a lot of people to thank for getting this amendment to pass - so let’s do it. Thank you @stellacreasy for tabling this bill & for your passionate arguments for it!
Thank you @HackneyAbbott for supporting NC10 of the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill & voting aye to the question #NowForNI
Thanks for your support @Debbie_abrahams for the NC10 amendment today to back decriminalisation of abortion in Northern Ireland should an executive not be formed by 21st October 2019
