What does Ireland's abortion referendum say about the country
today? On 25 May Irish voters face a choice - by way of a
referendum they can either keep a constitutional amendment which
outlaws abortion in all but the most exceptional circumstances,
or they can change their constitution and pave the way for the
legalisation of abortion. Given Ireland's history, culture and
religion it is a fierce debate. Hardtalk's Stephen Sackur is
joined by two campaigners - Sinead Redmond, an advocate of
expanding abortion rights, and Caroline Simons, an opponent.
