Fine Gael TD: Archbishop’s opinion on abortion ‘is not at all relevant’

Ms O’Connell has hit out at Archbishop Martin’s calls for politicians to remember their faith in their dealings with the 1983 abortion amendment.
Calling for the eighth amendment to be retained, he suggested that to support abortion is not in keeping with the fundamental teaching of the Church, and that the taking of a life, at whatever stage, is “gravely, morally wrong”.
