Campaigners behind plans to bring 'humanity and equality' to abortion reform on the Island say they think the practice is 'inhumane'.
HEAR says abortion is a 'violation of the equal humanity of unborn children' and it doesn't believe they should be 'lethally attacked and killed'.
The comments come after the group - which stands for Humanity and Equality in Abortion Reform - launched an online petition lobbying the new Health and Social Care Minister.
It calls for 'stronger right to life protections' and has been set up using the CitizenGo platform - however it's been criticised by some for being misleading; it's a claim HEAR denies.
Samantha Morris is the spokesperson for the pro-choice group CALM - she says people need to do their research before pledging their support for either side of the argument:
