Yesterday, we held our annual pro-choice march & rally! ✊ Our theme this year was abortion stigma. We focused on the fact that - whether we realise this or not - we all know and love people who have had abortions (Kulћadd iћobb lil xi ћadd li gћamel abort) 💖

Bill prolongs suffering! ‘Speaking to @TheTimesofMalta, consultant obs & gynae Mark Sant described the new bill as “regressive” ... Sant said one would still need to wait for a “massive infection for her life to be in jeopardy and action taken”’ timesofmalta.com/articles/vi…

‘Hundreds of us do it. Many of us are already parents. Choices we make for ourselves, our families, our futures. And yet, the state continues to fail us. We continue to live in fear and silence in our own homes.’

📷 To the woman who was ‘charged with abortion’ we say – You are brave and you are loved. In the words of a woman who shared her story with us: “You are not alone, you are not a bad person. Malta is the anomaly, not you.” 📷 Read the full message here: bit.ly/3oLKvkL

There cannot be talk of equality as long as women and people who can get pregnant continue to be treated as criminals for accessing abortions!

📢 Voice for Choice Press Release: This should have never happened! 📢 Yesterday, a Maltese woman was brought to court after facing criminal charges that she self-managed a medical abortion at home. We call on the state to decriminalise abortion - NOW! bit.ly/3WLy98M

Yes, #Malta will prosecute you for having an abortion for any reason. No, there is no way to get a legal abortion in #Malta. Yes, this is the same #Malta that pretends to be progressive to the outside world. theguardian.com/world/2023/j…
