Pro-life women feel excluded from anti-Trump March on Washington

The march, scheduled to take place in Washington DC on Saturday, aims to bring together people who reject words used by President-elect Donald Trump which they claim has "insulted, demonized, and threatened many of us," according to the organiser's website.

On Monday, the Women's March released a statement on Twitter which said that they had removed a partner - the New Wave Feminists- from their list of supporters because they are pro-life.

The statement reads: "The Women's March's platform is pro-choice and that has been our stance from day one.

"We want to assure all of our partners, as well as participants, that we are pro-choice as clearly stated in our Unity Principles... The anti-choice organization in question is not a partner of the Women's March on Washington.

"We apologise for this error."

Stanton Healthcare, a pro-life pregnancy crisis centre in Idaho, was also removed from the list of partners on Wednesday.

A number of Christian feminists responded with outrage over the statement.

Lila Rose, President of Live Action, tweeted:

And Christian author Rachel Held Evans wrote:

More than 200,000 people are expected to take part in the Saturday march which the website claims will be "one of the most intersectional marches in US history".
