Abortion straw-man?

Christian Concern / Daily Telegraph

In an extraordinary attack at a court hearing on 6 February, a judge has suggested that pro-life activist Aisling Hubert is a ‘straw-man’ in the prosecution of a doctor filmed offering ‘gender-abortion’.

His Honour Judge Martin Steiger QC made the comments during a hearing at Manchester Crown Court where a request was being made to obtain the full video evidence of two doctors in 2012 offering to abort a child simply due to the children being girls. The request was denied.
