Anti-abortion group operating in Scotland receiving 'shadowy' US donations

A UK-BASED anti-choice group that gives talks to schoolchildren about what it calls “coerced abortion” is receiving thousands of dollars from anonymous American donors.

According to VICE World News, nearly £73,000 (91,885 US dollars) has been anonymously paid to the Society for the Protection of the Unborn Child’s (SPUC) through an agency called NPT Transatlantic over the last two years. The agency facilitates donations across the Atlantic without donors having to reveal their names and or qualify for any tax deduction.
