Cloning can affect votes

According to an article in 'The Age', Fr John Flemming sent a letter to MP's stating that the way they vote on ESCR could well affect the way their constiuents vote. The article states that 51 per cent of Australians are against cloning human embryos as a source of stem cells. Every Catholic needs to write in to their local member of parliament asking for a clear articulation on the way they would vote if presented with a bill. Catholics should also make it known that if their local member was in favour of cloning and ESCR then we would be unable to vote for them. Whilst this might not change the member's point of view on the topic, it may lead them to believe that the issue is too sensitive and politically unstable to support.
