LONDON -- In one of the largest pro-choice demonstrations that Ireland has ever seen,Lewd Family [Uncut] thousands gathered in Dublin on a rainy Saturday afternoon to take part in a march calling for the repeal of the Eighth Amendment, which places a constitutional ban on abortion.
Witty rallying calls could be heard coming from the crowd: "Not the church, not the state, women must decide their fate”, and “Get your rosaries off my ovaries". However, their chants could not completely drown out the jeers of one nearby pub-goer.
That is, until a gentleman with particularly potent pipes lent his voice to the cause.
