Pro-Vita e Famiglia (“Pro-Life and Family”)
Considering how many of these groups are called something with family in the name I wouldn’t be surprised if 500 years from now the word ‘family’ was short for something like ‘sadistic hate group’.
Kinda already is. The Family (capitalised) is something you generally want to avoid.
Especially in Australia, rather infamous cult
Italian here. First it was the Church, then the Democrazia Cristiana, now those bigots. They’re not relevant. They will not succeed.
They say they got 100k, but even just to ask for a referendum they would need 10x.
Real problem is media spreading the words of these bigots.I miss when we used to point and laugh at these cunce
They elected a far right conservative government. Why is anyone surprised?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
An Italian anti-abortion group with ties to the United States has collected more than 100,000 signatures in an attempt to force women seeking abortions to listen to the so-called ‘foetal heartbeat’ before going ahead with the procedure.
The group, called Pro-Vita e Famiglia (“Pro-Life and Family”), is hoping to change Italy’s law on abortion to introduce two extra steps before patients can receive the treatment.
For years, conservative, Christian groups in the US have lobbied to restrict access to abortion, with activists famously gathering outside Planned Parenthood centres to try to intercept women seeking the procedure.
Movimento per la Vita (“Movement for Life”), the biggest anti-abortion organisation in Italy, is affiliated with Heartbeat International and has received a total of $99,810 (€92,800) from it in funding for training, projects, and support since 2014.
Italy’s prime minister Giorgia Meloni has long proclaimed herself to be strongly in favour of growing the country’s sluggish birth rate and the traditional family, to the point that many were worried about the future of abortion after her election.
Meloni, leader of the far-right party Brothers of Italy which is part of the current coalition in power, has also long been an ally of Orban, with whom she shares the anti-LGTBQ+, pro-traditional family stances at the heart of her political manifesto.
