SNP Bigots Deplatform ProLifers

The SNP has come under fire for cancelling a pro-life group from its party conference over claims it would make members ‘uncomfortable’.

The Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC) had already booked the fringe event, ‘No Law to Protect Her: The Reality of Coerced Abortion’, where a panel of women were set to discuss the lack of a “criminal offence for men who coerce women into having abortions”.

But after activists accused SPUC of presenting a “progressive veil for their outdated and bigoted beliefs”, the SNP cancelled the event and claimed that it had been “wrong” to ever allow it.

Michael Robinson, Executive Director of SPUC, stated: “Preventing debate and discussion and cancelling valid viewpoints are behaviours associated with totalitarian regimes around the world, the rule of the mob has replaced the rule of law within the SNP.”

He explained: “Our fringe event was on the subject of coerced abortion as we believe that no woman in Scotland should be coerced or pressured into having an abortion.

“The First Minister must now categorically state his views on this important issue: does he agree with SPUC that Scottish women should be legally protected from coerced abortion, if so why has he allowed a panel of expert women to be cancelled from his conference? Or is it the position of the SNP that women should not have specific coerced abortion legal protections?”

The pro-life group is considering legal action.

Last year, Scotland’s total number of abortions rose to yet another high. Public Health Scotland’s annual report showed that there were 18,783 abortions in 2025, breaking the previous year’s record of 18,717.

Euthanasia Deaths Double in Belgium

The proportion of deaths in Belgium caused by euthanasia has more than doubled over a five-year period, reaching 4% of all deaths in 2025, according to a report from the Federal Commission for the Control and Evaluation of Euthanasia released earlier this month.

According to a report released every two years as required under Belgian euthanasia law, there were 2,445 euthanasia deaths in 2020, accounting for 1.9% of all deaths in the region. However, the proportion of deaths in Belgium caused by euthanasia more than doubled by 2025, resulting in 4,487 deaths by euthanasia, accounting for 4% of all deaths in Belgium.

The report, which covers the two years of 2024 and 2025, also revealed there was a 12.43% increase in deaths by euthanasia from 2024, when 3,991 people ended their lives by euthanasia. Since 2003, the first full year in which euthanasia was legal in Belgium, when 235 people ended their lives by euthanasia, there has been a 1,809.36% increase in the number of people ending their lives this way.

Since euthanasia was made legal in Belgium in 2002, over 42,000 people have ended their lives this way.
