I can't see the need for the awareness of abortion to be raised.

And why can't these topics be covered in school,surrounded by adult debate? Do the teenagers of today rely on infomercials to pass on knowledge and awareness?

My first thought was that they're ignoring the cause and focusing on the effect - as usual.

They have to sort out the basic social decline first. Give me a flamethrower, a list of the estates where they live and I'll do my best to help.

What concerns me is the cost of all these government ads.

I was only thinking the other day that the NuLab way of controlling the media is through advertising revenue. The language that business understands the most.

I think in this case.......We'd need to take-off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure

I dont see a problem with it. They could do "Buy one get one free" abortion offers. Considering an abortion costs up to £1600 it would be a good deal. At the end of the day abortionists are just another business selling a service.

I agree, it really is becoming invasive and patronising

Equally tongue in cheek; I'm glad the teenagers will be paying for the abortions them selves!

I'd rather spend a few pennies putting cyanide in the spaghetti 'oops and head the entire socio demographic group off at the pass.

If there wasn't the vast taxpayer support there wouldn't be the number of single mothers.

"Callum, Ryan, Cheryl, choose your teas for the week, 5 cans each."

Actually heard in the local Tesco.
