In peaceful actions now banned in the UK and Ireland, pro-lifers in less repressive nations are saving little lives this Christmas. A pro-life advocacy group is organising a campaign to sing Christmas carols outside abortion clinics as we celebrate the Nativity of Our Lord.   

This December, the Pro-Life Action League has invited pro-lifers to participate in their “Peace in the Womb” Christmas caroling campaign to bring the joy of life to abortion clinics across the world.   

“One of the Pro-Life Action League’s favourite events of the year is our ‘Peace in the Womb’ Christmas caroling day,” the group wrote on their website. 

“The idea is simple: we bring the hope and joy of Christmas to one of the world’s darkest places—the abortion clinic—in hopes that the familiar sounds of Christmas carols will save a life,” it continued.  

“And, in fact, lives have been saved by our peaceful, prayerful witness when women heard our songs from inside the abortion facility and chose life for their children,” the website revealed, referencing a 2020 caroling which resulted in a mother decided to keep her baby.   

At the time, Pro-Life Action League executive director Eric Scheidler told the Christian Post, “In Jacksonville, Florida, a woman showed up with her daughter for an abortion and the daughter heard the singing, got real upset, went back to her car and said to her mom, ‘Find out what the heck’s going on.’” 

“And when they heard that we were there singing Christmas carols trying to appeal to the moms to choose life, the mom and daughter left the abortion clinic and then the pro-lifers followed up and found out that the girl had absolutely chosen to keep her baby,” he recalled.  

During the event, pro-lifers braved the winter cold to gather outside abortion clinics, often holding pro-life signs while they sing traditional Christmas carols.   

Many caroling events have already taken place across America, such as in Oregon last week when the local Knights of Columbus hosted a caroling event outside the Planned Parenthood in Eugene.  

“Some mothers have even walked out on abortion appointments because they heard pro-lifers caroling outside,” Eric Walter, State Life Program Director for Oregon Knights of Columbus, revealed. 

Walter said that the caroling is not only for the mothers, but also “for the precious children who will never see their first Christmas. The beautiful Christmas carols are always centered on Baby Jesus Who is our Hope and Life.” 

Killing the elderly and sick will help balance the books! The truth has emerged as Liam McArthur MSP has confirmed his view that the cost of assisted suicide in Scotland, including the requisite lethal drugs, will be met by the corresponding reduction in demand for end-of-life care.

The architect of Scotland’s assisted suicide Bill told Holyrood’s Finance and Public Administration Committee that potential savings in the provision of palliative care would render his Bill “cost-neutral”.

McArthur prefaced his opening statement to MSPs by declaring that he received financial backing from Dignity in Dying, Humanist Society Scotland and Friends at the End in pursuit of his campaign.

Members of the Committee questioned McArthur about the costings in his Financial Memorandum, published to accompany his Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill.

Referring to the cost of lethal drugs for assisted suicide, the memorandum states: “Community Pharmacy Scotland estimated that, as an example, one substance that may be used in such circumstances would cost an estimated £80 for each dose provided to a terminally ill adult to end their own life.

“On the basis of the estimate of 25 people having an assisted death in year one following the Bill’s enactment, rising to 400 by year 20 it can be estimated that the cost of the required substances would be around £2000 in year one, rising to £32,000 per year by year 20.”

The document concluded that the cost of enacting the Bill would be negated by any savings made “where palliative care is not, or is no longer, required” because those needing it have been helped to kill themselves.

McArthur informed MSPs the memorandum acknowledged that “the legislation is likely to result in savings as well as costs and that broadly speaking it is anticipated to be cost neutral.

The terrible murder of Sara Sharif by her father and step-mother is being exploited shamelessly by Keir Starmer and his totalitarian government. Labour have long planned to use Lenin's "salami tactics" to steadily destroy the right of parents to home-school their children, and they have seized on the vile murder as an excuse to cast suspicion on home-schooling and to begin the process of first regulating and then abolishing it.

Under Labour's plan, being promoted by exploiting Sar'a case, parents who home-school their children in England will have to register with their local council.

The Government’s Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill, which includes mandatory ‘Children Not in School’ registers, was introduced into Parliament yesterday.

Under the legislation, parents will no longer have an automatic right to educate their children at home if they are undergoing a child protection investigation. In addition, local authorities will be allowed to require school attendance if a home environment is deemed to be unsuitable.

The Bill also allows for the specification of unique identifiers for children for use by organisations working in child safeguarding, in an attempt to improve data sharing to protect child safety.

According to statistics based on this year’s census, the number of home-educated children in England has risen more than 20 per cent since last year.

Of an estimated 111,700 children in Autumn 2024, the most common reasons provided for educating them at home were for “mental health” (14 per cent) and “philosophical or preferential reasons” (14 per cent).

The Christian Institute’s Head of Education John Denning stated: “Lots of families home educate for all sorts of reasons: they may find local schools are not providing properly for their child’s special needs, or not effectively protecting them from bullying, or they may be unhappy with what the school is teaching on controversial social issues.

“It may simply be that during lockdown, they taught their child at home, it was a positive experience for them and their children, and they’ve decided to continue with it.

Mr Denning continued: “This is a decision parents must remain free to make. We should be very careful about the state interfering in that decision – unless of course the child is suffering, or is likely to suffer, significant harm in which case the state rightly already has the power to intervene under the 1989 Children Act.

“A compulsory register of home educators implies parents need permission from the state to educate their own children.”

He concluded: “It’s not hard to imagine it turning into a scheme to impose conditions for registration, where a parent effectively has to educate in a state-approved way.”

Can you imagine a country so far down the liberal, totalitarian, death-culture road that this lovely image and wholesome slogan are "to controversial" to be used on advertising hoardings? If you can't, then consider Canada!

Manitoba-based pro-life group Life Culture had planned to use the same image it used last year for a Christmas themed pro-life advertisement, but Pattison Outdoor Advertisements decided not to allow the image to be displayed on its billboards. 

The executive director of Life Culture, Susan Penner, has revealed that her group’s pro-life image showed a pregnant mom cradling the baby in her womb. It included a caption that read, “Celebrate the gift of life!” Penner noted that the ad was to remind Canadians that, in an age of abortion and euthanasia, “life and pregnancy is a gift.” 

Despite the pleasant nature of the advertisement, billboard company Pattison claimed that the ad created too much “controversy” when displayed last year, and that it has received “backlash” from comparable ads in the past.  

According to Penner, emails from Pattison sent to Life Culture show that the advertising giant had initially agreed to give the ad space for the pro-life ads, which were to be displayed for the Christmas season in three locations, two in Winnipeg and one in the city of Steinbach. 

After appearing to get the go-ahead for the ads, Penner said she got another email from Pattison letting her know that they would no longer be working with her group. 

“Susan, I regret to inform you that my compliance department will not allow your creative to post on our inventory,” read a portion of the email, which was shared with True North.

Pattison went on to state that the “category of the content is pro-life/pro-choice, and it simply creates too much controversy for us.” 

That death-culture 'road'? In truth, it's a very slippery slope; with an extremely nasty end!

Ireland must be on its guard against renewed attempts to remove end-of-life protections for the vulnerable, a well-known Catholic newspaper columnist has said.

Writing in the Irish Times, Breda O’Brien warned that the progress of a Private Member’s Bill promoting euthanasia in Westminster could give “impetus” to the cause of activists seeking to introduce assisted suicide in Ireland.

She also said that the fall of Gino Kenny’s Private Member’s Bill at the Dáil’s dissolution prior to the election, as well as his failure to be re-elected, “does not mean the issue will not be revisited”.

O’Brien branded Kim Leadbeater’s assisted suicide Bill in the UK “deeply flawed” and described its passing to Committee stage in the House of Commons as “rushed”.

She pointed out that the Bill’s compatibility with human rights legislation had been questioned, and that Leadbeater’s claims it had the support of the judiciary had been shown to be unsubstantiated.

Evidence from countries where assisted suicide or euthanasia is legal, she added, revealed how the ‘eligibility criteria’ are expanded over time and people ask for medical help to kill themselves for fear of being a burden to others.

She continued: “Families cannot object; doctors cannot truly opt out, as they must refer to another doctor; there is no obligation, as there is even for a tonsillectomy, to explain that the procedure has risks other than the obvious one of death, such as vomiting up the drugs or slipping into a coma.”

Turning her attention to the situation in Ireland, she noted: “disability groups are vehemently opposed to legalisation, as are the Irish Association of Palliative Care, the Irish Palliative Care Consultants’ Association, the Royal College of Physicians and the College of Psychiatrists of Ireland.

“The Irish College of General Practitioners is neutral but admits that even among those who favour it, the support is passive with little indication of any desire to be actively involved in taking lives.

“The last government recently published an important strategy on palliative care. Instead of foisting assisted suicide on healthcare professionals who don’t want it, and vulnerable people who deserve better, why don’t we do something really progressive by prioritising palliative care?”

If you went by all the puff-pieces for "assisted suicide" in the liberal media, you might think that everyone who might be involved supports the move to push euthanasia into law in Britain.

But the truth is very different. Activists with disabilities are speaking out against the legalisation of assisted suicide and are warning that vulnerable people risk “being devalued to death” as Labour MP Kim Leadbeater attempts to introduce assisted suicide.

Leadbeater’s assisted suicide bill has led to an outcry among a number of major disability rights groups and activists who are continuing to express their fervent opposition to the move. 

Actress and activist Liz Carr, who described the prospect of legalising assisted suicide in the UK as “terrifying” in her BBC documentary Better Off Dead?, shared her fears about its effect on vulnerable people. 

She said “For many disabled people the assumption that we’d be ‘Better Off Dead’ is something that we get used to hearing. We do not believe that any safeguard can adequately protect us from coercion, abuse, mistake and discrimination. We believe that if assisted suicide is legalised, disabled, ill and older people risk being devalued to death”.

‘What’s to say I won’t be eligible for a death sentence, and pushed into it?’

Fears of coercion are very real for Dermot Devlin, founder of the disabled rights and disability blog My Way Access, who told Politics UK he is “scared” about being forced into an assisted suicide through the new Bill.

“With my increased chronic pain, respiratory failure and mobility issues, what’s to say I won’t be eligible for a death sentence, and pushed into it?”, he said.

Disability rights activist George Fielding echoed Devlin and Carr’s concerns, stating that legalising assisted suicide would “lead to coercion and pressure on disabled individuals to end their lives prematurely”. He said “In a society that often devalues and marginalises disabled people, it is not difficult to imagine scenarios where individuals feel like they are a burden to their families or caregivers. The mere existence of legally assisted suicide could send the message that ending one’s life is an acceptable solution to these feelings rather than addressing the underlying societal attitudes and lack of support”.

As for the medical experts, no doctors’ groups in the UK support changing the law to introduce assisted suicide or euthanasia. The British Medical Association, the Royal College of General Practitioners, the Royal College of Physicians, the British Geriatric Society, and the Association for Palliative Medicine have all rejected the proposals.

While Donald Trump has rejected any federal ban on abortion, America's industrial baby-killers are still dreading his presidency. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, Trump’s appointees to head the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), have already said they will defund Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider. 

J D Vance stated in October that a second Trump administration will defund Planned Parenthood.

Planned Parenthood gets roughly $450 million in federal government funds; about 40 percent of their revenue comes from government reimbursements and grants. If the federal government were to completely cut ties with the abortion giant, the cuts could conceivably sink the organisation and lead to the closure of many brick-and-mortar abortion clinics. 

In many states, Planned Parenthood has pushed out smaller abortion providers and acquired a monopoly on abortion provision; if PP clinics were to close, many areas would have no abortion clinics in the area. 

Add to that the fact that, according to a new report, abortion clinics are closing right across the country. The Guardian noted this week that in total, “76 independent abortion clinics have closed since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022 … But the closures aren’t limited to states with restrictive laws. Of the 11 clinics that shuttered in the last year, eight were located in states with strong abortion protections.” From the Guardian: 

Over the last year, 11 independent abortion clinics closed, bringing the nationwide total of brick-and-mortar indie clinics in the U.S. to 363, according to a report released on Tuesday morning by the Abortion Care Network (ACN), a network of independent providers. That’s down from more than 500 in 2012.
