§ Mr. Harry Greenway (Ealing, North)I wish to present a petition, which reads as follows:
To the Honourable the Commons of Great Britain, Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled. The humble petition of the Ealing Chapter of Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship International.The petition is in the name of John K. Winget, of 25 Conway crescent, Perivale, Greenford, Middlesex, and others. It
ShowethThat we the undersigned wish to note with regret that the Abortion Pill Mifegyne (known as "RU486") has been granted a product licence. We believe that drugs and medicines should be used only to save life. We deplore the fact that this drug causes the death of unborn human beings, and we express our grave concern that it will damage women physically and psychologically.I support and associate myself strongly with the petitioners.The petition ends:
Wherefore your petitioners pray that your honourable House, which is committed to upholding respect for human life and protection of the weak and vulnerable, will do everything possible to prevent the distribution and use of Mifegyne (known as RU486) and any other drugs which, like it, are produced with the deliberate intention of destroying innocent human life. And your Petitioners, as in duty bound will ever pray, etc.To lie upon the Table.
