London – June 2004. The Constantinian Order has for the past year supported the important work of the All Party Parliamentary Pro-Life Group within the British Parliament. The group, which includes 
key Constantinian knights and dames among it leadership, include Lord Alton of Liverpool and Ann Widdecombe MP. The Patron of the Group is Anthony Bailey, Delegate for Great Britain & Ireland of the Constantinian Order.
The Delegation has during the past few months donated over £12,000 (€18,000) to fund the work of the Group which is a cross-party, multi-faith group striving to promote the sanctity of human life from conception until natural death within Parliament. During the past year, the Group has held meetings with Government Ministers on a variety of issues including the draft Mental Incapacity Bill and sex and relationship education. Other issues, which the All-Party Group are involved with, include the Lord Joffe’s Patient (Assisted Dying) Bill and opposing moves to liberalise the Abortion Act.
In addition, the Constantinian Order funded the costs which allowed pro-life campaigner Norma McCorvey to come from the United States to Britain in March 2004 and speak at the House of Commons.
Group Chairman, Jim Dobbin, MP, said ‘This past year has witnessed the beginning of what I trust will be a long and fruitful relationship between the All Party Parliamentary Pro-Life Group and the Sacred Military Constantinian Order of St George. Throughout the Group’s treasure, Lord Alton of Liverpool the Group has received invaluable financial and moral support from the Constantinian Order as well as personally from its delegation Anthony Bailey.
“It is vital that there is a vocal and effective pro-life presence in Parliament. My parliamentary colleagues and I remain committed to upholding the sanctity of human life from conception until natural death and the support from the Constantinian Order makes this possible”.
