Campaigners on Friday called for more consistent protection for women facing harassment while trying to access abortion services in the UK after a Christian preacher was convicted over a protest outside a clinic.
Stephen Green, 72, who says his prosecution was an “attack on the Bible and free speech”, held up a placard with a religious text during his protest in west London last February.
The protest took place in a so-called buffer zone around the clinic put in place by the local Ealing council, the first in the UK surrounding such a facility.
Buffer zones around abortion clinics were brought in across the UK in January 2023, after complaints from women of intimidation and harassment from anti-abortion groups and protesters.
Green’s sign, quoting Psalm 139, read: “For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb.”
A judge in Uxbridge, northwest London, on Thursday said he had “pointedly and intentionally” included the words “in my mother’s womb” as “an act of protest”.
The words amounted to an “expression of disapproval” of abortion and therefore were in breach of a public spaces protection order used to set up the buffer zone, district judge Kathryn Verghis said.
