Big Al, the grip of the Catholic church on Ireland was certainly a factor in unionist resistance to governance from Dublin. (Doesn't in any way justify that they made Northern Ireland even more inhospitable for Catholics.)

As far as abortion is concerned, it should be kept in mind that the Abortion Act 1967 that legalised it in England and Wales does not apply to Northern Ireland, where abortion is still severely restricted.
