#1 Provisions of the law include:

-Abortion without parental consent for 16 years old girls

-Abortion until 22th week. That is five month. At this stage the baby has been for long being able to move (people will remind an issue from a Tv series, who I have been told was based on real facts, where a faoetus grabs a fringer of the surgeon who was intervening his mother: that was a 20 weeks foetus).

Opposition hasn't been merely a catholic thing. I know a lot of liberal (european sense: free market) atheistic or agnostic bloggers and all of them are adamantly against this law. In fact a number of left wing Spaniards oppose it and others only support it due to party discipline.

#3 JFM, you messed up your nick. Interesting still how lively is the spanish conservative opposition, even when the msm, french or not, will not report on the sheer massiveness of some street protest turnouts (like that education reform a couple years ago, with literally millions in the street, with barely a peep from the teevee talking heads, whereas any 10-15 leftists protest is accompanied by several news crews). Spain seems heavily spoiled by an hedonistical & left-leaning spirit, but it DOES have an actual conservative movement.

#4 This should do wonders for Spain's 1.31 fertility rate.
