| Date | 03:31:44, November 18, 2015 CET | From | The Worker's Union (WU) | To | Debating the Government out of Healthcare Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We do not support article 1 as every woman should have the right to abort an unwanted pregnancy regardless of her financial position, and by not allowing the poor to get abortions they may not be able to afford punishes them socially and financially until the child is an adult. Article 2 is an obvious attack on the poor, the right of healthcare and medicine should not depend on your ability to afford it. By taking away these subsidies for medicine you will be murdering poor citizens who cannot afford their life saving medicine. Sophie Malto, Chairman of the Workers Fromt |
