A group calling itself ‘Sustainable Population Australia (SPA)’ has declared that Australia’s 22 million people must be reduced to 7 million in order to avoid ‘environmental suicide’. The way in which this population control pressure group would plan to reduce the Australian population is to restrict every couple to one baby – on the lines of the infamous One Child policy enforced in China.
The group’s national president has also called for the abolition of the government baby bonus paid for all children in a family after the first child.
The Australian Democrats party, however, to which the national president of the group originally belonged, has distanced itself from her proposals, and the party has issued a statement, as follows: ‘It is a core belief of the Australian Democrats that we must work together to find practical solutions to all our problems that do not infringe the right of Australians to choose how they want to live their lives.’
The Archbishop of Sydney, Cardinal George Pell, commented that: ‘We need to start rethinking this [anti-natal] attitude if we want enough people around when we are old to care for us, pay taxes to support us, and if necessary, go to war to defend us.’

Mary Ann Glendon refuses Notre Dame Award
Lifesitenews.com report that former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See, Mary Ann Glendon who was chosen to receive the Notre Dame Laetare Medal and give an acceptance speech at the same ceremony as President Obama, has refused to accept the award and declined to take part in the ceremony, as part of the widespread protest of the university's decision to honour the President.
In a letter sent to Fr Jenkins Ms. Glendon wrote that the decision to invite President Obama was "in disregard of the U.S. bishops' express request of 2004 that Catholic institutions 'should not honor those who act in defiance of our fundamental moral principles' and that such persons 'should not be given awards, honors or platforms which would suggest support for their actions.'" "It is with great sadness," Glendon stated, "that I have concluded that I cannot accept the Laetare Medal or participate in the May 17 graduation ceremony."
