LACK OF TIME MEANS NUS FAILS TO PASS ANY PRO-ABORTION POLICIES
This years NUS Conference was cut short due to the government holding the 3rd reading of the Higher Education Bill midway through conference. Lack of time and de-prioritisation therefore meant no pro-abortion motions or amendments passed. However, pro-abortion policies were passed at NUS Women's Conference - details of which will shortly appear on our website.
'We are delighted that no pro-abortion policies were passed at the main NUS Conference this year', said Patrick Leahy, director of Student LifeNet who attended the Conference.
'Next year we will ensure Conference fails again. We are aiming to get a large number of pro-life delegates elected who, alongside religious students and those who want to de-politicise the NUS, will represent a powerful force.
'The NUS represents the only real opposition to pro-lifers at school and university level. They must be defeated'.
