This has made me so fucking angry. Even the judge knew it was ridiculous saying that the legislation is over 150 years old. Not only did the poor fucker have to buy some poison off the internet, take it and miscarry a 12 week old feotus with no medical or psychological support, they're now a convicted criminal thanks to an Act from 1861!!!!!
Get fucked Stormont, seriously. Just burn the shit hole to the ground with all "them'uns over ther said the sky is blue so I'm gonna say it's red, so it is". Fucking cunts.
