ALT A letter to all FM candidates asking the following questions: 1. Do you support the implementation of safe access zones around clinics providing abortion in Scotland, and will your government back Gillian Mackay MSP’s Bill on this? 2. Currently in Scotland no health board offers abortion care up to the legal limit of 24 weeks. As First Minister, would you commit to ensuring that all Scottish women can access abortion care in Scotland without being forced to travel to England? 3. Currently, abortion in Scotland is not a right. Women still need the approval of two doctors, must meet one of five grounds for having an abortion, and care innovation is limited – all because abortion is governed by the criminal law. As First Minister, would you commit to removing abortion from the criminal law and ensuring it is treated as the healthcare it is?
ALT Title: call for participants, with image of 3 woman standing at a bus stop next to it. Main text: have you experienced harassment in public? do you believe it was, at least partially, based on your actual or perceived gender identity as a woman*? Are you 18-30 years old and living in Scotland? If yes, please consider sharing your story as part of this PhD study looking at potential legal response to gender-based public harassment. *This study does not aim to treat women as a uniform group and will explore how gender-based public harassment interacts with existing prejudices in society, including but not limited to, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism and islamophobia.
