All the 17 MEP candidates that responded to a survey organised by the Life Network Foundation said they would vote against any measure which would promote abortion.

The foundation contacted all the candidates asking them to state their stand on four key issues, but not all responded, and not all responded to all the questions.

On the issue of abortion, all 17 said they were against, but when it came to surrogacy, 13 were against and four were in favour.

On the question of one’s right to freedom of conscience, one was against and 16 said they were committed to defending it.

The final question was on euthanasia and/or assisted suicide, with 14 against and three in favour.

The full list follows, but the foundation said that it would update the results if further replies were received.
