Quote of the day: Does ultrasound trouble abortion advocates?

Ultrasound is instrumental in the fight against abortion precisely because it allows women to make an informed choice by shedding light in a place which, for most of its history, has been shrouded in secrecy. And when the pro-choice camp rails so angrily against the light technology has shed, it almost seems like they prefer the darkness.

Perhaps what they see on that monitor troubles them. And you know what? It should.

~ Eric Metaxas, discussing The Atlantic’s claims that ultrasound technology, in allowing the preborn human child to be seen, makes women “disappear”, Break Point, February 8

The Terminally Ill (End of Life) Bill is due to be debated for a final day in the House of Lords on Friday, but is generally not expected to pass during the current session of Parliament. If made into law, it would give people who meet certain criteria in England and Wales the right to end their lives at a time of their choosing, subject to safeguards and protections. Supporters have said the bill, which passed the House of Commons last year, has been "slowed by procedural obstruction" in the House of Lords. Critics have raised concerns that the bill in its current form lacked sufficient safeguards for vulnerable people. (Photo by Dan Kitwood/Getty Images)
