Mitchell criticises 'offensive' Creighton comments

Fine Gael TD Olivia Mitchell says some of the comments made by Junior Minister Lucinda Creighton during the Dail debate on the new abortion legislation were "offensive".

Minister Creighton is the most high ranking Fine Gael member to express discomfort with the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Bill - saying she will vote with her conscience and will "step outside the groupthink".
