Colette believes we can get rid of misogyny through education & open debate like the one we were having yesterday,Sees repeal movement as being v important.Generating a ground swell of goodness & camaraderie. Change is coming slowly. #Together4Yes
Last speaker of the day was the legend herself @ailbhes. Huge empathy from Ailbhe to Tar for the trolling she has had to endure. Ailbhe knows when she gets personal criticism she is only targeted because she is standing up for herself. Women's voices need to be heard.
Ailbhe told us at least 3,500 women travel to UK for abortions. Around 1,500 take abortion pill without medical supervision. Hypocrisy to say we don't have abortion in Ireland. Concludes by saying that better sex education needed. Also education on consent & sexual relations.
