Gillian Mackay, a Scottish Green MSP who championed the Abortion Services Safe Access Zones legislation, defends the law as a safeguard for individual privacy. In contrast, Lois McLatchie Miller from Alliance Defending Freedom International argues against it, emphasizing freedom of speech. They debate whether private prayer can be seen as a criminal act, especially following a recent arrest that sparked outrage. The conversation navigates the tricky balance between protecting access to abortion services and allowing for personal expression in public spaces.
