Es ist für mich unbegreiflich, wie man als Liberaler ausgerechnet die Kriminalisierung der Freiheit von Frauen über ihren eigenen Körper zu entscheiden, als „stabilen Konsens“ verteidigen kann. (Einen Konsens, den es nebenbei nicht gibt, 80% der Deutschen lehnen #Paragraph218 ab)
„Ich unterstütze das nicht!“ @c_lindner positioniert sich klar gegen die Initiative zur Abschaffung von #Paragraph218. Es gebe zum Thema #Schwangerschaftsabbruch einen „stabilen gesellschaftlichen Konsens“. Er betont aber: Jeder MdB entscheidet frei. Quelle: @TableBriefings
