The former PM told an anti-abortion protest in Sydney that the bill is 'a licence for sex-selection abortions' and took aim at the Berejiklian government for facilitating the proposed legislation.

Former prime minister Tony Abbott has told an anti-abortion protest in Sydney that the NSW decriminalisation bill will lead to "infanticide on demand".

He said his expectation was the government would "build roads, deliver good schools, good hospitals, support the police, [and deliver] sound administration. Former prime minister Tony Abbott, right, and former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce at the anti-abortion rally at Hyde Park.Mr Joyce likened the issue of abortion to the slave trade in 19th-century America which, he said, the country "moved on from".

Mr Conolly and Liberal MP Tanya Davies have threatened to go to the crossbench and plunge the government into minority if "sensible amendments" are not passed.

About the mad monk is a dinosaur

Emphasise 'former PM'. The man was irrational leading up to his sacking as PM and still is. It is likely he still harbours political ambitions. Any platform will do.

I thought this guy retired...

The former self appointed Minister for Women HonTonyAbbott, totally and utterly unqualified, and refuses to consider studies and facts from people who are. abortionisnotusedascontraception abortionisnotinfanticide auspol

There is no difference to what is happening now. The only difference is that the women involved will have a choice and be protected by law for the first time. Please report truthfully.

He and other like him need to keep their religious beliefs to themselves.

Please stop giving this person airtime, . He is a misogynist oxygen thief. Please and thank you. auspol

Australian has separation of church and state and this is an absolute example why Tony Abbott became irrelevant & the people voted him out it's time that religious views are removed from parliament this includes the religion of the left which is often non traditional religion

He should be the poster boy for pro choice, what an air thief!

Just be grateful this nasty piece of work is no longer in Parliament. The people in his electorate saw through his smarmy facade.

Focus on getting the imported population down.

It's time we stopped calling it Anti-abortion but Pro Life. The alternative to pro Life is murder in the womb. People need to see a video where the unborn is screaming in the womb when the killing machine enters the kill the child.

Can men stop telling women what to do with their bodies? Imagine women start demanding all men to take birth control or be castrated. What an uproar on freedom of choice for men!

Sex selection can be stopped. But abortion has always been and always will be. WE have to decide a better way. These men don't care if the mother lives or dies. Illegal abortions kill both.

Abbott continues to prove what an idiot he is.

Look at all these sheep. You want to be a sheep or a Lion?

Why put the lie in the headline?

This twerp has had his say long ago. Let the good people speak and act instead.

piss off Tony - it is 2019

Rubbish!

Did he keep a straight face throughout?

I bet the people of Warringah are relieved this maniac is not longer their federal representative

Here is another one!

Remember HonTonyAbbott and Barnaby_Joyce's Grand support for women when they were PM and deputy PM - they derided women that used maternity leave as evil double dippers

I do wish Abbott would keep his religious bullshit to himself...

I so despise this individual

Tony Abbott is a very decent man. Abortion is murder.

A shame it’s not retrospective

keep ur rosaries off my ovaries thanks

Why is it so important to you Tony what women decide to do with their own bodies? Your relevance is long gone but never existed on this topic.

Once a grub, always a grub! He also gave a character reference for a Child raper.

I think it’s just confronting for some people to accept a human is able to be aborted at this stage of life. We have some parents fighting to keep theirs a live and others ready to abort.

Unsurprisingly, not a single constructive response from the Left.

What a lot of crap. This mans imagination astounds one. It's as though he lives life in his own simple world.

Worry about those filthy paedophiles in your church first hypocrite

Simply cut off the oxygen to this disgustingly flawed man.

WHEN WILL OLD MEN WITH OUTDATED BACKWARDS VIEWS STOP TELLING WOMEN WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR BODIES?!

ANOTHER reason I dont read yr paper. Giving 'air' to the extreme views of a has-been, backbencher

He was right on the money. Most extreme abortion laws in Australia

A foetus isn't an 'infant'.

Abbott breathing is a health hazard, he doesn’t have a vagina

Tony “George Pell is a top bloke” Abbott

Who is he to tell anyone anything. Enough Mr Abbott. ENOUGH. Australians are sick to death of your opinions. Your DISGUSTING and stay OUT of Women’s business.

The former PM might have told them that, but the former PM was talking shit.

Pity his father didn’t Usa a condom. To quote Alan Jones put a sock down his throat

Wish his mother did all of us a favour and aborted him.. He's a pol...he aint an Aussie.

In case there was any doubt, Tony just reinforced why he lost the Prime Ministership and his seat. What a dick.

P* off Abbott. How dare you speak for women.

After telling the British how to deal with brexit he’s back here.....couldn’t he have stayed in his mother country!!

Sad middle aged man!

Why doesn’t he just disappear?

Sex-selection abortionists that's a new one Tone

Tell him to go home to Britain.

Tony Abbott warns West faces 'extinction' crisis, praises Hungary's far-right leaderFormer PM Tony Abbott warns Western nations face an extinction crisis if they don't have more children. So, he doesn't like identity politics on the left, yet here he is in broad daylight partaking in identity politics? If Abbott and his ilk represent western civilisation, I'm happy to see it wound up for good. This might be a shock to Abbott's supporters but a chihuahua and a wolf are the same species. They can produce fertile offspring after they have sex. Humans are a globally distributed, phenotypically varied species of Hominid. Phenotype does not separate the species necessarily!
