We have to have this conversation and we have to talk and listen with respect, compassion and clarity. The language around the debate is
itself confusing. I am pro-choice. That does not mean I’m pro-abortion. It does mean that I love and respect women, and that I believe women should have the right to make their own decisions about their own bodies.
“If your opinion is different to mine, I understand and respect that too. It is valid and true for you – but each person must be free to make the choice that is right for them. There are many reasons - and they are always personal - why a woman may not want, or be able, to continue with a pregnancy. The decision should be theirs to make, and it should be theirs to make in their own country.”
