Demand Ronan Mullen's Removal
Demand National University of Ireland voters withdraw support for Ronan Mullen for his unprofessionalism and recent comments about Savita Halappanavar. His behaviour is a disgrace to Ireland and an embarrassment for the University.
Why is this important?
National University of Ireland's Ronan Mullen has a long history of unprofessional, embarassing, and offensive behaviour. He most recently made apalling comments about Savita Halappanavar, who is no longer here to defend herself -- due to the kinds of policies Senator Mullen himself promotes.
Ronan Mullen made the following statement about Savita Halappanavar, who was trying to start a family and was intentionally pregnant with her first child:
"If there was abortion on demand she wouldn't have been in the hospital because she wouldn't have been pregnant and she wouldn't have been having a miscarriage."
Savita died due to lack of medical intervention during pregnancy, as a direct result of the 8th Amendment.
How it will be delivered
Senator Ronan Mullen's office.
(note: when this petition had ~40 signatures it began receiving requests to call for his removal rather than an apology, and was updated to reflect that strong sentiment)
