TDs have passed the second stage of the Protection of Life During Pregnancy Bill by 138 votes to 24 in this evening's Dáil vote.
Four Fine Gael TDs voted against - Peter Mathews, Billy Timmins, Brian Walsh and Terence Flanagan.

All four will now be expelled from the Fine Gael parliamentary party.
A series of other Fine Gael TDs who have problems with the bill, including junior minister Lucinda Creighton, voted in favour of it for now but could break ranks later.
Sinn Féin's Peadar Toibin also voted against the bill, as did 13 out of the 19 Fianna Fáil TDs.

A very principled Irish republican, who ironically, I was speaking to earlier today once stated the "Devil is in that house". It's true that Leinster House is rotten and those politicians are rotten. Leinster House is where the Irish parliament. Now, thankfully many pro-lifers have woken to the lies and deceit of these politicians. Few believe power is wielded in parliament.

I despise these thieves, traitors and liars of politicians.

The title of thread should read Dáil

I hope people in Ireland will not feel dejected and demoralised by the treachery of the politicians. One woman is quite upset as a politician told her he was against abortion but is voting for abortion. As discussed often they say anything to get the vote.

From the arguments that I was getting from Irish people on the Independent a few weeks ago, it seems that the majority of the pro-aborts over there, base their opinions on their mistrust of the Church in the wake of the pedophilia scandals. How illogical is the mind of a faithless proabort. The majority of the arguments that I heard supporting abortion were literally a mixture of "Catholic priests molested children" and "God doesn't exist". That's there argument. How can you fight against that level of logic?
