That Guardian link is borderline unreadable. I clicked it first and had to give up and click the bbc link to see what actually happened.
Good for Ireland, welcome to civilization.
Shouldn’t this go in politics though?
The Guardian link is more a live timeline - with links to the more traditional format of news stories on the right, with links to breaking events on the left.
Maybe it could go in the Politics thread - though from a UK/Irish perspective I’d say this is more news than politics.
For far, far too long many from Ireland have had to resort to come to mainland Britain to be able to receive an abortion - often young women scared, alone, with no emotional support - sometimes without the knowledge of their families and even friends, scraping enough together money for the travel etc.
The whole situation was ridiculous and cruel.
Well in to the people of the Republic of Ireland - and those who made this referendum happen.
Hopefully Northern Ireland will soon follow suit…
