Fantastic!
I'm a customer of the co-op bank, and they're always taking an ethical stance and have refused customers for a number of reasons.
They're quite right to turn this lot away.

It's about time someone took a firm stand against christian hate mongering.

Would you also support a Christian organisation that refused to provide health insurance to its employees for abortion?

Why or why not?

why not?

I am comfortable with the current UK legal position on abortion. I reseoct your right to disagree.

Employers here don't really provide health insurance. We have a national health service, for everyone. The NHS provides all medical services (well, within reason), including abortions.

If a christian organisation had a health insurance scheme for its employees which was restricted in what you could use it for, I wouldn't really have a problem with this. So long as people knew what they were signing up for. I'd hope they would unionise and press for better benefits, but I accept that the this one might not be on their list.

I wouldn't support this hypothetical christian organisation, but I'd understand.

A bit like Green Party employees not getting a decent car scheme.
