I think we'll have a mountain to climb to get it through the lower house, but I think we could.
When they sold abortion up to birth in South Australia, they stood on the steps with this sign that said decriminalisation.
And so the lie that they sold was that we need this new law because we need to stop women going to jail.
But no women had been jailed for abortion in anyone's memory.
Like that just had not happened.
It was a total lie.
What they were really doing was removing all upper gestational limits on abortion so that it could be available up until birth and for any reason.
So the good thing about this campaign is for the first time we can now have this debate on our own terms and we can say, are you on the side of killing babies older than 25 weeks or are you not?
And if you are on that side of killing babies older than 25 weeks, then you're really an extreme candidate.
Like you're a murderer.
There's no other way to describe it because you support injecting that baby with poison and then delivering them dead when you could just induce that baby early, deliver them alive and place them for adoption.
Like you could do that.
Those babies have to come out.
They either come out dead or they come out alive.
You guys are on the side of bringing them out dead.
And so I think having that debate publicly is really significant.
But then beyond that, once you have that debate and whether we pass that law or we don't, we keep having those debates then because...
I think, you know, as James said to me when we were debating this when I was 21 was, well, what's the difference between a baby five minutes before birth and five minutes after?
I guess I would say to people, well, what's the difference between a 24-week-old baby and a 25-week-old baby or a 20-week and a 25-week?
And so on.
