Letter: A woman's right to boost employment
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.WITH RESPECT to your reporter Geraldine Bedell ('Why I want Tony Bland's doctor tried for murder', 21 March), surely it is those who support the death penalty for innocent victims of abortion and euthanasia and reject the death penalty for those guilty of serious crimes who are inconsistent, not Father James Morrow.
If your reporter was really puzzled by Father Morrow's linking the loss of four million babies through abortion in Britain with our high unemployment figures, she should surely have asked him at the time. If she had, he would presumably have pointed out that in their early years humans need a lot of care, attention, food and clothing, the provision and production of which would indeed have employed many people. In turn, these four million people would in time be productive workers, with children of their own, who in turn would need care and provision.
