Lletres: Oi Polloi. Fuaim Catha. The Right To Choose.


Are we to go back to the days of Victoria?
Will we so easily surrender the gains we've made so far?
Back to an age of repression, hypocrisy and lies
Forced into the backstreets as another freedom dies

No! No return to the backstreets!

Christian fundamentalists, right-wing nutters
Claim to respect life - soon show their true colours
Abortion clinic doctor gunned down in the street
Is this the "sanctity of life" they claim is their belief

No! No return to the backstreets!

Thousands more will die - backstreet abortionist
The bloody human consequence if we do not resist
The bombing and the terror - well what do you think?
Your future as a breeding sow behind the kitchen sink?

"Abortion clinics bombed, medical staff shot and murdered - a sinister campaing of right-wing terror. We're not just talking about a bunch of religious fanatics trying to impose their views on everyone else - the issue of abortion affects us all as it is the doorway through which many people are brought to the broader reactionary agenda of the new right. SPUC, Operation Rescue, the BNP - make no mistake about it - unless we take on the nutters and fight we'll lose the right to choose"

"Fight - or lose the right to chose"
