East Galway TD Ciaran Cannon has urged people to vote ‘No’ in the referendum to repeal the Eighth Amendment on 25 May.

In a series of tweets over the weekend, the Fine Gael TD cited text from the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and retweeted a tweet from John McGuirk which stated: “In Britain, one in every five pregnancies end in abortion.”

This statistic has been challenged as it fails to take miscarriages into consideration.

The Minister for the Diaspora & International Development also urged people to ‘be kind to one another’ during the referendum campaign, which many believe will be the most divisive in the history of the state.
