Interesting how the BBC portrayed the statistics regarding the 54 with 8 or more, rather than stating, as suggested by the quote, that 33 were over 30 years old (ie the majority), they try to put it into the reader's mind the idea that they're being used through recklessness by suggesting youngsters are using it so often, leaving the reader (who's generally lazy) to do the maths.
I doubt the BBC would twist a story or not report a story that didn't suit their agenda.

Youngsters around here seem to be very reluctant to have abortions. The 80's phase of teenagers getting pregnant, being a meal ticket passed but now we seem to be going full circle again.
