The Abortion Rights Campaign is seeking free, safe and legal abortion for all women living in Ireland.

Thousands of demonstrators marched through Dublin city centre this afternoon, with wheelie suitcases, to represent those forced to travel for a termination.

The group is calling on the Government to repeal the 8th amendment.
