Shriti Vadera And The Abortion Conference

Christian Voice are upset because Shriti Vadera, aka. Baroness Vadera, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for International Development, has attended a conference on safe abortion.

GOVERNMENT'S VADERA TAKES SIDES ON ABORTION - Link to the press release

There's some guff about the Government taking sides (which they may or may not have a point about, I don't really care) but then Steven Green comes out with this:
'It is especially disturbing to have a Government spokeswoman of Indian origin supporting abortion on demand given the abuses of abortion in India. Selective foeticide has resulted in a gender imbalance of 80 girls being born for every 100 boys. Clearly the Hindu dowry system is partly to blame, but abortion on demand in India is the evil which allows such an injustice to be done. For Shriti Vadera to go and support abortion on demand knowing about the misogyny it encourages in India is simply callous.'
Raised in India? Well then, the Indian abortion issue's entirely on your shoulders then! Ugh...
