Sunday morning

A front page story in the Observer say that "anti-abortion MPs last night abandoned their parliamentary fight for new restrictions". They now want an inquiry, rather than pushing things to the vote this week. As Nadine Dorries is quoted as saying, the issue is too important to become a 'political football' and deserves more lengthy reflection.

Strange then that she spent this morning at a church in her constituency, telling the congregation in rather lengthy detail about her fight to restrict abortion, including just what amendments (16 week time limit, and lots more) she would be voting for and against on Wednesday.
