Talking about abortion

Madam, – A report of March 22nd on abortion guidelines in the North has some lop-sided language

Madam, – A report of March 22nd on abortion guidelines in the North has some lop-sided language. On the one side, it does not hesitate to use the self-styled title of “pro-choice” in preference to “pro-abortion”. Yet on the other, it avoids the self-styled title of pro-life in favour of “anti-abortion”. Consistency counts. – Yours, etc,
