Feminist Fightback [1] will be organising leafleting in Clapham junction, in South London, followed by a protest outside the Battersea Labour Party office. Both actions raise a broad series of pro-choice demands, relating not only to abortion rights, but to sex education, childcare, the NHS and the welfare state.

The aim of the leafleting is to raise public awareness of the issues involved; the aim of the protest is to put pressure on local MPs Martin Linton (Battersea), Kate Hoey (Vauxhall) and Sadiq Khan (Tooting), all of whom are known to be wavering on a likely amendment to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill - to be debated in May - reducing the time limit for access to abortion. We want the labour movement to stand up for women's liberation; if these MPs claim to be part of the labour movement, they should prove it by their actions. (Local Labour Party and trade union members will be particularly welcome on the protest.)

Meet 1pm, outside the front of Clapham Junction station (five-ten minutes from both Waterloo and Victoria)
Meet 2.15pm, outside Battersea Labour Party office, 177 Lavender Hill, London SW11 5LW (for a map see here [2])
