Anti-abortion campaigner accused of using bullying tactics | ABC NEWS
A prominent anti-abortion campaigner is being accused of using bullying tactics to try to influence a parliamentary debate about expanding access to abortion.
Both the New South Wales premier and opposition leader say the South Australian academic, Joanna Howe, has made political threats over a bill to change abortion laws in NSW.
They’re calling her actions an attempt to Americanise politics here.
The amended bill passed late on Wednesday 14th May with overwhelming support.
