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 refer the honourable gentleman to the answer I gave earlier ....


Update

I've just found this which quotes the source:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...bortion120.xml

and this by chance (from 2004):

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main...ixnewstop.html

Which doesn't say much for the BPAS's ethics at that time.


and this:

"Nevertheless, today abortion is an essential method of family planning and should be accepted it as such."
