Picket supports abortion rights
By Anne Pavy
PERTH — "Get your laws off our bodies", shouted a lively picket outside Liberal Party offices here on January 27.
The demonstration, initiated by the Democratic Socialists, highlighted the support the Right to Life organisation has been giving Liberal candidate Hal Colebatch in his campaign for the state electorate of Perth.
The Democratic Socialist candidate for Perth, Michelle Hovane, is campaigning for the repeal of all laws that restrict a woman's right to choose.
