Tony Abbott backed Pyne during IVF trauma
CHRISTOPHER Pyne has revealed Tony Abbott felt the Catholic Church's teachings on IVF were "misguided" as he provided moral support while the frontbencher and his wife were trying to conceive through the treatment.
Mr Pyne, one of Mr Abbott's closest colleagues, said the Opposition Leader was only ever "extraordinarily supportive" over the five years they underwent IVF treatments. Mr Pyne spoke out after Mr Abbott's chief of staff, Peta Credlin, revealed the Opposition Leader had allowed her to store her fertility drugs in his parliamentary fridge and cleared out his official bathroom for her use as she underwent IVF.
Now, I may be dim.... but really, Mr Abbott's personal opinions and actions in this, should not a news headline.......his Religious beliefs or otherwise do not have any place in Parliament, imo. His opposition to the Catholic Church's teachings are between him and his Church/God?
and how dare those people make it public. friends or foe?
