Hosts: Kathy Sinnott and Paul MacAree with guests Dawn McAvoy, Mark Baillie and Katie Ascough
With only two weeks left before the Irish Abortion Referendum, Kathy looks at the crucial issues from an all Ireland perspective. Legalised abortion in the Irish Republic will have profound implications for Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. Dawn McAvoy and Mark Baillie from bothlivesmatter.org have analysis. Twenty-one year old Katie Ascough is one of Ireland's best known, and highly respected, pro-life advocates. As a former Students’ Union president of Ireland’s UCD College, Katie paid the price for standing up for the human rights of the unborn. Newman College Ireland presented Katie with its first annual award for 'Courage in the Public Square'. Katie tells Paul MacAree her inspiring story - and about how the national pro-life effort is going.
