Glasgow SNP MSP John Mason criticised for supporting American abortion ruling

Mr Mason said in an email that the move was"pretty positive" and added that the 24-week limit for abortion inOn Friday the US Supreme Court overturned the Roe v Wade ruling, which made abortion legal in America.

The decision, which has been widely condemned as a devastating blow to women's rights, was criticised by President Joe Biden. But Mr Mason, a committed Christian, said the decision was"good for democracy" in an email that was shared online with his permission. It reads: “In the first place, it’s good for democracy as decisions on abortion will be made at a state level rather than United States wide.“However, I fully accept the key issue here is on abortion itself."However, others would argue that from the point of conception there are two people with rights ... both the women and the baby.“Even if abortion continues to be allowed in Scotland, we certainly need to reconsider the 24-week limit.

“This is much higher than other European countries and is also now very out-of-date as science and medicine have advanced.On Twitter, Mr Mason was criticised by Labour MSP Monica Lennon and abortion rights campaign group Back Off Scotland, which is campaigning for buffer zones to prevent anti-abortion vigils outside clinics.She said: “For the avoidance of doubt: There is nothing positive about the recent US court ruling.“Abortion is legal up to 24 weeks in Scotland.

He needs to be removed. He has no place in Scottish politics.

How that man is elected to anything in Scotland, let alone Glasgow is beyond me.

I don’t know this chap but does he suffer some mental health problems ?almost everything I read about him is bizarre.if he’s not well someone get him out the firing line- if he is ok then he should have learned by now when to shut up and when to raise an opinion.
