Those who sign the petition say….

We asked people why they signed the petition “Defending the reproductive rights of Ukrainian women in Ukraine, Poland, across and beyond the European Union: a global feminist struggle.”

‘A woman’s right to bodily autonomy is a fundamental right. It is horrendous that Ukrainian women fleeing war are finding these rights removed, some of them having been raped by invading Russian soldiers, in their country of so called ‘refuge’. — Brendan Ogle, UNITE labour union, Ireland

There is a global attack on women access to abortion rights, often from the same right wing forces, and we need to stand in solidarity with those fighting for reproductive health care and abortion access everywhere such rights are under attack. — Brid Smith, Member of Parliament (People before Profit/Solidarity) Ireland

We will keep adding to this section….
