In recent weeks, the former Nationals party leader, Hon Barnaby Joyce MP who now sits on the backbench, has taken a leading role in the fight against the push to decriminalise abortion in NSW.
Earlier this month MR Joyce went out of his way to share an anti-abortion statement on the floor of Parliament, declaring that no-one should have the "power today to declassify another person as less than human, and by doing so removing their most fundamental right to be alive".
Comment from Editor: As well, Hon Barnaby Joyce MP was a leading speaker at one of the prolife rallies outside the NSW parliament.
