Right to Life Australia (The Right to Life Australia Inc) operated as an unincorporated organisation lobbying on consistent life ethic policies such as total opposition to abortion, euthanasia and stem cell research. Margaret Tighe was the last known President[1] until retiring in 2010[2] and Toni Turnbull of South Australia was the last known Vice President. While the group states it was a non-denominational Christian organisation, most of those involved identify as Roman Catholics.
The Right to Life Australia Inc was established after tensions arose between the National Right to Life Association and the Associations Victoria-based branch. According to contributors, the tension resulted from 'tactics that embarrassed the otherwise conservative right-to-lifers'.[3] By 1980 the new Right to Life Australia group was drafting appeal letters for funds despite what was described at the time as "a lot of objections to the establishment of this organsation".[4]
The Right to Life Australia Inc organisation was begun by President Margaret Tighe as a national organisation. However, there were already state-based groups like Right to Life Western Australia that did not wish to join a national body.[5] Right to Life WA declined to join a national coalition of organisations lobbying against abortion and voluntary assisted dying and criticised the "proliferation of pro-life groups and associations".
