Big Story! European Nations Have No "Right" to Abortion.

Abortion proponents’ efforts to make abortion a “right” in Europe were thwarted today when the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights held that the European Convention on Human Rights contains no “right” to abortion. The Court rightly found that matters relating to abortion should be left to the member states’ own domestic laws...

Because the case was decided in the Grand Chamber of the ECHR, the judgment is binding on all lower chambers and member states.
