AN anti-abortion protest group has been criticised for apparently flouting social distancing rules outside a Glasgow hospital.
A small group representing 40 Days for Life was photographed outside the maternity unit at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, attracting criticism from an NHS worker.
The employee, whose twitter handle is Hospital Worker, posted: "40daysforlife, your mob aren't socially distancing or wearing masks outside our maternity unit.
"It would be lovely if they didn't contribute to our coronavirus cases, could you have a word? Their actions aren't exactly 'pro-life' in this instance, are they?"
Hi @40daysforlife, your mob aren't socially distancing or wearing masks outside our maternity unit. It would be lovely if they didn't contribute to our coronavirus cases, could you have a word? Their actions aren't exactly 'pro-life' in this instance, are they? pic.twitter.com/c8H9u7R1BL

The 40 Days for Life group says it organises peaceful vigils outside abortion centers, and community outreach centres.
The Glasgow Times has contacted the group for comment.
