Encouraged men to vote Yes for choice on May 25th 2018 - to make Ireland a fairer, kinder, more mature place. And they DID. Next stop: Northern Ireland.

Lovely Leitrim on tour. Belfast has the Buzz! #NowForNI #thenorthisnext
'Devolution is not now nor has it ever been justification for the denial of women's rights. All eyes now on Theresa May. She can either remain complicit in the harm and suffering of women like Sarah, or she can do what her responsibility requires her to do and change the law' nitter.gq/VinnyMcAv/status/10046…

Today, the UK Supreme Court stated that 'the present law treats the pregnant woman as a vehicle' #NowForNI

Months of work behind the scenes by @stellacreasy with @All4Choice @LdnIrishARC @bpas1968 @AmnestyNI @FPACharity & more. Today is the day! Debate is coming up soon! Www.londonirisharc.com/now-f… #NowforNI nitter.gq/LdnIrishARC/status/100…
'By repealing OAPA we as the UK parliament can show women across the UK that we trust all women with their own healthcare - wherever they live. We can also show we trust every legislator to act to create modern abortion laws. ' - @stellacreasy #NowForNI

Right pals if you could all email or (better) ring your MPs & ask them to attend today’s emergency debate on decriminalising abortion. Ring 020 7219 3000 to get the parliamentary switchboard and ask for their office - not a long chat, takes literally one minute! #nowforNI

Excellent meeting with Opposition spokespeople on Health this evening and also a good meeting with the Attorney General. We owe it to the Irish people to work together to enact referendum decision. Very grateful for the constructive meeting as we plan next steps.

Received Government approval today to draft the new law following the decision of the people of #repealthe8th . This is one of 3 important pieces of work we need to undertake - the other two being clincial guidelines & regulation of medicines. Work underway! Let’s get it done

Waking up, knowing Ireland has come #Together4Yes - there are no words. We did it, for Savita, for Michelle Harte, for Ms Y, Ms P, for all the women and couples and families who we hurt along the way, for the woman we love who needed our Yes, for ourselves. #together4tomorrow

Apart from all the talk happening today, there's an undeniable call to expand emigrant voting rights. Irish emigrants care. We care so much we keep coming home to bloody canvass. The #hometovote movement needs to build momentum to expand our rights.
