What is the aftermath of the Election? We now have David Cameron as our Prime Minister and a Liberal/Conservative coalition in power. We now have many new Members of Parliament some of whom, hopefully, will have similar moral values to ourselves. Perhaps this will make some small difference to the laws which are passed in this country, but what now?
Do we now forget about politics for another 4-5 years? Or until the next local elections? Leave things down to the politicians, the majority of whom are far from pro-life, to make decisions on our behalf?
No!
Now politics should be as important an issue as it was during the election campaign for those of us who are pro-life. Now we must find the most pro-life candidate for our local area and do everything we can up until the next election to put them in a position where they have a real chance to be elected. They will be more than willing to point you in the right direction for doing this. We must also try to convince our sitting MP that he/she should be pro-life, show them that there is a strong movement in his constituency that is pro-life.
If you already have an MP who is Pro-life then you must do all you can to support them. Show them that there is support for their very noble convictions and give them the courage to stick by them when it matters in Parliament. Write and thank them when they witness for life. Show them how important their vote on life issues is to you.
