DUP and Ulster Unionist opposition to 2019 legislation is ‘shameful and disgraceful’, says Michelle O’Neill
Sinn Féin has welcomed a demand by the British government for progress on the introduction of abortion services in Northern Ireland as the party denounced Democratic Unionist opposition to the provisions as “shameful and disgraceful”.
Northern Ireland’s deputy first minister, Michelle O’Neill, accused the DUP and the Ulster Unionist party of trying to reverse legislation imposed by Westminster in 2019, which provided for terminations in cases of fatal foetal abnormalities.
