Left's mad. The 3rd Way remains behind the abortion compromise

The activists and representatives of NGOs, communicating until late evening with the representatives of the Left, expressed their willingness to appear in the Sejm on Wednesday morning and following days. The MPs of the Left summarizing the first reactions to Holownia's decision to postpone work on the bill on abortion, stress that they are furious.

"Look, Bożenko, first the first circular of local elections, then there will be II, then there will be a second, then a moment, elections to the EP, then only presidential elections (I and II turn) and again parliamentary elections... And the rights of women neither see nor hear," wrote Anna Maria Żukowska.

They besides do not cover that Vladimir Czarzasty was right in his remarks, pointing to Hołownia and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz as liable for blocking the start of work on draft laws. Yet, until the last minute, they hoped that the 3rd Road would change their minds and let for the start of legislation.

Many activists rise their voice that the 3rd Way owes its success in the Sejm to women who voted for the coalition in the 15 October election. Agata Diduszko-Zyglewski, a writer and a associate of the fresh Left Board, writes on portal X: “So many women voted for the 3rd Road in the fall just to keep it from falling under the threshold. Now Simon Holovnia and Kosiniak-K. bravely stand against women, their laws and safety-for it as always, with bishops. Weak. Do not be fooled again."

Robert Biedron besides spoke in a akin tone. “The rights of women decision in, not play them. If it weren't for the women who went to the ballot on October 15, he'd inactive regulation the Law and Justice. Whoever plays women's rights ignores their strength, which they showed in the elections," he stressed.

Each organization has a different vision.

The task developed by the 3rd Road assumes the anticipation of abortion in cases where this endangers the life and wellness of a woman. Politicians of this organization search to reconstruct the legal position of Poland before the 2020 Constitutional Court ruling. specified a compromise may have the best chance of supporting the President. This thought of the 3rd Way was besides mentioned before the elections, which is why it is hard to talk about "fraud" against women who voted for this coalition.

It is worth noting that the 3rd Way task besides includes the introduction of sexual education into schools and the establishment of a way of treatment after rape cases, which is based not only on abortion, but besides on intellectual support of the victim.

The Left has a different view of the case. The first of the party's projects concerns legalization of abortion up to Week 12 without the request for a cause. Furthermore, the Left seeks to introduce additional rules on the conscience clause among doctors to reduce abuse at the expense of patients' rights.

The second task of the Left concerns the decriminalisation of abortion, which means removing the provisions of the Criminal Code which consider abortion assistance a crime. specified a change in law would aim to defend household members and close women who are trying to support women in their decision to discontinue pregnancy.
