In a legal challenge to the law surrounding end of life issues, campaigners have said they will continue to protect the most vulnerable despite losing an appeal in mid-January.

Cost of justice
Christian Concern
On 17 January, an undisclosed settlement was reached on the amount of costs to be paid as a result of the gender abortion case taken up by Aisling Hubert.
£36,000 costs were awarded against her after she tried to bring two ‘gender-abortion’ doctors to justice. The judge said he could not amend or reduce the costs. Instead a settlement was reached and Aisling now has until 18 August to pay the agreed amount.
