In Catalonia prepares for a vote that could redraw the map of Spain, Jon Henley is looking for stories of ordinary people. In Barcelona, ??speaks to those who defy the clamor separatist

Catalan independence - an interactive journey

It is very easy to meet people of Catalonia who are willing to talk freely about their opposition to independence. The discourse of independence tends to dominate the media and many public conversations. As Donal Quinn, who lives in Barcelona and works in a business school here, he said, those who oppose radical change "feel threatened by those who lead change making them much less vocal -. Especially if they feel independence will happen anyway, and there could be a kind of reaction against that became public in their opposition to it. "Some who speak:

Silvia Galup

, 38, "typical of the middle class" Barcelonina gal "

"My experience is sufficient Catalan'm Catalan and proud of it too - .. But to be honest, I do not think that defines me more than being Spanish or European, even, in fact, like to think that my points leftist political views I define something as random as my birthplace .

"Right now, I see it all the rage independence with a mixture of sadness, anger and frustration. Sadness because I do not understand how my people can not forget the tragic consequences of the economic crisis interests flag angry because I see nothing but a hypocritical interest in the independence of Mas [President] Artur and his team ( to win: nobody talks about corruption, welfare cuts and pain in this campaign). . and frustration because I have all day to deal with separatists: if you're not with them, you're against them (On the other hand, as I feel insulted by the Catalan nationalists accusing Spanish Catalonia sick a lot)

"I am ashamed when I hear my friends - intelligent and educated people of Spanish" oppression ", and the urgent need for freedom of Catalonia, but I also feel embarrassed when I ' Spanish nationalists hear fans .. Catalonia as a land without liberty is insulting, in fact, that people who grew up in freedom and democracy speaks of the lack of freedom - especially when you think about the suffering under the dictatorship of Franco Catalonia is a wonderful country. Barcelona is a beautiful city. But there is nothing more fun and not easy to think differently. And I hate to say it. "

Pau Girl, business communications specialist with the Centre for Research and Innovation of Catalonia

.?

"I am absolutely against the independence of Catalonia, but I am in favor of a federal" independence "of the Spanish regions is not a new issue in the political life of my country, but why now is simple: while political expediency is the key - instead of dealing with the economic crisis, the ruling party realized that the focus of the debate on the identity and sovereignty something emotional was the easiest way to lose control - .. it is true that the current model does not work anymore Spanish This situation must be resolved, and the economic crisis pushes things in this direction

"For me, Catalonia is a region with a strong sense of identity in relation to other regions of Spain. However, is only one of many Spanish regions, all with different identities. While tensions between these regions continue to increase, and the current system is clearly insufficient to resolve this internal conflict, it is clear that we need a change - and every citizen sees the elections as a very important debate on the model of identity, sovereignty and territorial current Spain. I think it's time for a new territorial model that will give the opportunity to Catalonia greater autonomy in governance - .. but without breaking relations with Spain, which is how I will vote on Sunday "

Maria Gonzalez, recently returned to his native Barcelona after spending several years in the United Kingdom

"I am a Catalan who has lived in the UK for several years, and returned to Barcelona for 18 months -., But I'm ready to leave the country again, the recession has played a role in this area, but nationalism (or patriotism) is also a very large piece. since the background is also important ethnological Catalonia these days, I must say that I was born a Catalan, but my parents come from other parts of Spain. 'Ve lived here for 50. years Our voice does not seem to be as important as the voice of "pure Catalan" Disgusting as it may seem, is a term I heard recently:. saying a word against the independence of Catalonia and attacked because his name is Sanchez or Lopez.

"It is not that the Spanish nationalist parties have not helped. This is a situation that was further enhanced by the two parties. Catalan nationalism but has also played its part. ' I managed to spread hatred of Spanish nationalism (nationalism should all be hated!) hatred of all things Spanish. then appealed to the pride of the Catalan language

poble [ people].

"As an ordinary citizen who does not care about nationalism, it's hopeless. Certainly, I am not raising my children in a country full of hatred and chauvinism.'m Very sad that most of the population of Catalonia (which could not have less in common with the concept of "pure Catalan ') supports these ideas. People change, changing, and culture is constantly in motion. Trying to keep" pure "concept of culture is very, very dangerous."

Carlos Martinez, 38, was born in Barcelona and has lived in the city until 2005

"I think independence would Catalonia against the unification process that we have seen in the EU - trying to reach common ground on economic issues, fiscal and social. - And instead of giving more weight to differences

"I recognize some cultural and historical differences between distinctive development of the Spanish regions, but this has not been a problem until recently. While some Catalan nationalist politicians began to see the rest of Spain as a state operated and steal the Catalans and deprives them of their right historical 12th century as a kingdom.

"The situation deteriorated rapidly as a result of the global crisis. Catalan nationalists say the vast majority of Catalans want to be independent, but the truth is that since September 2009, polls showed an average of 20% participation. enormous independence demonstration in September shows how politicians and the media manipulate people People subsidized. are generally reluctant to get their own information and rarely compare sources. This, along with the stations television, radio and newspapers are speakers of regional government, has disabled its judgment. oppose Try them and you'll soon

Families

full of high fat processed foods, like 900,000 less than two years managing fruit "five a day" and vegetables

Austerity Britain experienced a recession nutrition, food prices and shrinking incomes climb the consumption of fatty foods, which reduces the amount of fruits and vegetables we buy and condemn people low income regime increasingly unhealthy.

detailed data collected by The Guardian, which has analyzed the grocery shopping habits of thousands of citizens of the United Kingdom shows that the consumption of fat, sugar and saturated fats increased in dramatically since 2010, especially in the poorest households, even if the overall volume of food purchased virtually unchanged.

food experts and activists have called for government action to address concerns that the UK is facing a crisis caused by poverty sustainable food nutrition, which in turn accumulate series health problems that threaten the growing inequality between rich and poor households.

data show consumption of fatty foods and processed as instant noodles coated chicken, meatballs, pies, canned beans, pizza and fried foods grew up in households with an income less than £ 25,000 per year, consumers increasingly difficulty choosing products perceived as less expensive and more "filler".

During the same period, consumption of fruits and vegetables has declined, except in the richest households in the UK, and more radically among the poorest consumers, according to the data. It is estimated that the number of people who regularly send "five a day" fruit and vegetables decreased tendency 900,000 in two years, until May 2012.

Food

activist Laura Sandys, Conservative MP for South Thanet in Kent, one of the poorest neighborhoods in the UK, said the results showed that the country faces a "significant and growing "nutritional crisis. Sandys has called on the government and the food industry to adopt measures against food poverty, she said that intensify as food prices continue to rise and household incomes have declined.

Sandys, who created the Smarter Consumer Commission earlier this year to fight against food poverty, said: "We must begin to see food as an important policy and accept that many families will not be able to feed themselves in the way they have, due to food price inflation and the lack of food skills. "

Guardian

research data Breadline Britain were collected by consumers Kantar Worldpanel analyst, which operates a panel of 30,000 UK households in all income categories. Participating households electronically scan all grocery items you buy every week, Kantar Worldpanel to build a detailed and constantly updated picture of the buying habits of food.

Giles Quick, Director Kantar Worldpanel, said: "We have to worry about a child who goes to bed not having eaten dinner, but we also need to worry about the much larger number of children go to bed full of food that is nutritional deficiencies. This problem affects millions of households on a regular basis.

food choices of the poorest households were mainly driven by the price and were more likely to be influenced by two for the price promotions of style, most often associated with food processing. Spending on meals chillled increased by 25% over the past two years. "Feeding the family on a special offer or a list of pizza food is a cheaper alternative to the more complex, freshly prepared dishes containing multiple ingredients," said Quick.

consumption of fruits and vegetables has declined since 2010 in all homes and virtually all parts of the UK, but particularly in the poorest households, and northwest England. In Scotland, five once daily increased slightly since 2010, the data show. This was attributed by the Scottish Government quick maintenance of a sustained social marketing campaign to promote healthier choices.



Since May 2010, the consumption of fruits and vegetables decreased among consumers in all major supermarkets, discount, except that Lidl and Netto, according to the data. Quick said the price was the key factor. "Health is not simply seen as a priority when budgets are tight

"Fruits and vegetables are much more likely to be consumed as part of a meal cooked at home, home cooking and down as the hours get longer as families struggle to survive and keep their jobs. "
The results echo the official statistics published last month, which showed that low-income households to buy less food began in 2007, after the first of a series of price increases food. Over the past five years, the retail price of processed foods increased by 36%, with an increase of 15% in 2012. Fruit prices have increased 34% since 2007 and 22% of vehicles.

Hostage

his base, the GOP is seen as pro-freedom in certain matters, but shameless and intrusive in others. We can not win like that

In the wake of President Obama's re-election, the Republican Party is in the midst of great need for introspection. Although this idea is critical, it is also essential that we misdiagnosis Republicans or "spin" the reasons for our loss. Ultimately, defeat Mitt Romney is the result of a Republican Party fractured by the intellectual and ideological conflict.

Ultimately, the success of the presidential election coalitions are not based on a party: basic math tells us that simply are not enough Democrats or Republicans foam pillars for a candidate win . Therefore, in order to win the election, a candidate must build, motivate and mobilize a broad coalition that engages positively the majority of voters. But when, as with the current Republican Party, a coalition is divided by "fracture" ideational voters inevitably hemorrhage. Unless the Republicans on our break, the result of 2016 will not be as bad as in 2012, but will be even worse

In my opinion, the failure of the current GOP coalition is divided into three basic intellectual divide, the relationship between state and individual fracture and failure of national identity. Firstly, let us consider the intellectual divide.

At present, the Republican Party is a home for both the student of politics and whoever hates studious. This contrast was crystallized from very different Republican Party Vice President candidate in 2008 and 2012. When 2008 gave Republicans Sarah Palin, the charismatic populist warrior railing against the "liberal elites", the reverse of 2008 Paul Ryan, a man who revels in the immersion of complex issues. While the Republican base was greatly enamored of Palin and Ryan both, beyond the excitement of the campaign season, there are obvious problems in the presence of such a clear dichotomy of style and substance.

When Sarah Palin attack

academic "elites" and policy frameworks such questions as "gotcha" attacks, the effect is not simply to excite the elements of the Republican base, but also to promote persistent perception in the minds of independent voters debate and compromise are the irreconcilable enemies of the Republican brand. This is evident in the response to comments influential intellectual conservative Republican Bill Kristol was Sunday, when he suggested that, as part of a broader agreement debt, raise taxes on millionaires not to ruin the country. Instead of recognizing the benefits conservatives willing to negotiate in good faith (the preservation of our military), many conservatives rather Kristol called a traitor.

election expenses of this fetish orthodoxy goes well beyond the loss of Romney. Ask former Senators Richard Lugar and Scott Brown. Instead lost his job because his willingness to engage in bipartisanship is characterized by its principal rival as a form of "elitist" treason. Brown has lost, at least in part, because his opponent was able to associate with Brown as the winner of the Republican candidates Lugar, Mourdock, boasting language absolutist ideological purity. Therefore, in the case of Brown and experience, we see the catastrophic dynamics arising from the pursuit of purity as an end in itself.

This purity cost two Republican seats in the Senate, the loss of a leader in bipartisan foreign policy, the isolation of Republican voters in Massachusetts and a further decline republican identity. Not good.


The family problem? Too many Republican policies actively alienate minority voters GOP environment. While Republicans could point to Marco Rubio and Condoleezza Rice as representatives of the voters of a minority party inclusive view as aggressive anti-immigration law (see Arizona Governor Jan Brewer). Minority voters also heard of electric fences and "self-deportation". Voters also find minority Republican attacks on their right to freedom of worship.

Malik Muhammad Iqbal shot dead in Rawalpindi after a flight to testify against their former captors

A British man who was kidnapped in Pakistan and only released when his family paid a ransom of £ 15,000, was killed after his return to the country to testify against their former captors.

Speaking to

Bradford Telegraph & Argus

as the news of the death broke, a friend and former adviser Riaz Ahmed said: "It was a strong man and provocative, and it is a tragedy for his family and for all.

"But it is wrong to authorities, the event took place, and he had to stay late and delay his return home."

Ahmed said. "He was well aware of the potential risk to himself, but he was very strong mind and sought justice, to be held was rebellious, he knew there would be problems, but high principles could not ignore.



"Before leaving, he said that" justice must be done to prevent this from happening to someone else. "

After being released last year, Iqbal described how he was kidnapped while visiting his family in Rawalpindi and chained in a shed on a farm for 20 days, surviving on tea and occasional biscuits always their captors.
Iqbal, who was from Kenya, but moved to Bradford in 1968, was abducted on September 4 last year, two days before he had planned to return home after giving one family friend a lift in an area near the Islamabad airport. When they reached their destination, said Iqbal was ambushed by five men and a gun put to his head. During treatment, a kidnapper remained with him at all times. His family, local farmers were forced to sell some of their cattle to collect the ransom money.

Mick McCarthy faces a struggle to overcome Ipswich, Sheffield United at the bit and it's time for Lee Clark to start making money on Birmingham City

1. Ipswich can take their season?

Ipswich 1-0 win at Saint-André on Saturday was very encouraging, but the direction changes often players to clean negativity and produce short-term success, regardless of the relevance of new director of the paper. The positive environment Mick McCarthy is in his dressing room this week could evaporate as quickly as it appeared, and with even lower Championship Ipswich Town, a prolonged honeymoon seems very unlikely. The match against Crystal Palace - was fueled by the arrival of the charismatic Ian Holloway - will test much more difficult than the poor city of Birmingham, and to show how we are able to climb the ladder of Ipswich safety

McCarthy admitted that, despite the rich history of Ipswich, "What we do not at this time is a particularly good team." If the city wants to avoid relegation this season, you need a boost in the initial form. If they can not establish a chain of decent results in these early games, you'll probably lose.

When McCarthy became manager of Sunderland in March 2003, taking over from Howard Wilkinson team was unable to inspire and fell helplessly into the championship with his manager - famous for his man management skills and discipline - who can not raise a set of unhappy players out of trouble.

If DJ Campbell on loan from QPR and free transfer Nigel Reo-Coker Ipswich can come out of their torpor, survival is possible. However, these initial results are essential, and tell us if possible leak.

2. Sheffield United could exceed Tranmere

Ronnie Moore was a fairytale (second) first as director of Tranmere Rovers, converting one side distinctly average League One title formidable rivals most of the night. However, signs of fatigue may have crept into his game, with Rovers only one collection point in the last nine available and hesitant start to sprint season. Defeat Sheffield United, however, have been quietly moving up the table and now hover menacingly Rovers on top of the table. In the back of three consecutive wins, United have the chance to succeed when they take on Swindon, Tranmere with no plans to play until Wednesday, when they travel to Hartlepool.


4. The best, in the worst case

The game at Ricoh brings together two teams with contrasting fortunes wildly, flying or diving in the big leagues for happiness and despair of their respective fans. Only 11 years ago, there were six divisions Coventry City before Tuesday night opponents Crawley Town. Now sit 18 places below them in the demise of the League One Sky Blues "desperate looks set to continue unless drastic changes are made in the cash-strapped club. Back-to-back decline is a serious possibility.

Crawley, on the other hand, are two points of the top of the table, looking for a third successive incredible promotion. Everyone expects the bubble to burst, but his great form is unlikely to end Coventry.

Clutch and Internet writers

blame the lack of slide libraries, saying that it may deprive children of essential reading material

A group of authors has triggered an alert by the decrease in non-fiction for children, asking publishers and libraries to reverse the decline or the risk of depriving children - especially children - . Equipment essential reading

Led by prolific writer nonfiction children Jenny Vaughan, 26 authors have written for The Guardian in an attempt to rescue a kind they think is in terminal decline.

"go to the end of our collective obligations," said Vaughan. "We thought something must be done - we need to start making a noise about it before the kids nonfiction is obsolete."

In the letter, the authors state that "once there were hundreds of books available, covering every topic imaginable -. But almost overnight, it seemed, the market for them has almost disappeared, do not think, because children do not want to know the real world.

"This is partly due to the lack or loss of life, school and public libraries. And then there is the belief that the Internet provides all the necessities of any information ".

official figures from Nielsen BookScan show that sales for nonfiction children fell to 41.1 pounds in mid-August, against 9% in five years. Most of these sales are made study guides - worth £ 22.6m - with the TV series tie-in books Moshi Monsters taking five card slots and are £ 2.2m for the period, 35 % in the last year.

Caroline Horn, children's literature and expert resource editor Zone children's reading books, agreed that the non-fiction children has declined significantly in recent years.

"Publishers have been reduced, in part because of people like Waterstones completely cuts in non-fiction about six or seven years. Beginning of the period and worsens as the Internet became more powerful, "he said.

The authors argue that librarians focus on fiction for children, and "virtually abandoned" in non-fiction, in part because "the restrictions of the national program were many publishers stop producing something original and many books about the Vikings and rainforests is what you really need? "

innovative new titles rather than non-fiction, there are "" endless imitation "Horrible History" they say.


Note that the group
All Party 2012 report literacy, children's reading of the Committee (pdf), in which Phil Jarrett, National Ofsted said that children "tend to read .. . documentaries, biographies, newspapers and so on ", and children in particular, are" turned off "by the lack of books that interest them.

"There's more to life than fiction for children," said Vaughan. "It's wonderful to get all the attention, but not all children want to read books all the time."
The authors call publishers to "start taking risks," to break with the curriculum and produce "new forms of non-fiction and themes that will delight and inspire. "They conclude:" Oh yes, and keeping libraries open can be a good idea, too. "

poor children may be too hungry to concentrate in lessons, experts and activists warn

A growing number of breakfast clubs in primary schools are forced to close due to budget cuts, despite evidence of growing demand. As the school year gets underway, the cuts are likely to leave many vulnerable children in danger of going to school hungry and unable to concentrate in class, according to experts.

requests under the Freedom of Information Act of 128 local authorities by Labour MP Sharon Hodgson, Minister of shade for children and families, found that 40% reported a decrease of breakfast clubs.

Some cuts are severe. Essex County Council said the county had 219 breakfast clubs at school last year, but this year 169. In Surrey, 2870 children were making breakfast last year, but only 1,200 in 2012.

"40% of the tips that I know are seeing falling numbers is very worrying," said Hodgson. "For some children, their free meals at school during the week may be the only meal they get well, and we know that hungry children find it difficult to concentrate in class. Breakfast Clubs are therefore very important in improving educational outcomes in all areas, but certainly in most needy. "

The findings are supported by anecdotal evidence from organizations on the ground. ContinYou education organization offers scholarships to primary school breakfast clubs, in collaboration with Kellogg. "We used to get about two calls per month schools seeking funding to establish or continue to support breakfast clubs," said Karin Woodley, chief executive of the institution. "Last week, we received 15 inquiries. At least one in eight breakfast clubs closed their doors over the last 12 months and the teachers tell us that this is due to local courts budgetary authority. "

Carmel McConnell, CEO of magical breakfast, which provides food and support to nearly 200 clubs , described the situation as "pure social failure." "We had 20 or 30 schools in the waiting list. Now have 130, "she said." Forms that you fill is mourning .. The children come to school hungry apathetic because we also see mid-week hunger because the compensation and benefits packages home run "

According to data gathered by the magical breakfast, 88% of teachers say that the introduction of a breakfast club leads to better attendance and performance, while 93% say it led to a better concentration in class.


Earlier this year, the Royal College of General Practitioners, the National Association of Teachers head and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health has urged the government to give 1.3 million children in England are already entitled to free school meals, free breakfasts. Wales introduced free breakfasts in primary schools in 2007, but the Ministry of Education stated that he did not intend to follow this example.

A DfE spokesman acknowledged the importance of service. "Breakfast clubs can improve children's attendance, concentration, motivation and promotion of healthy eating habits."
however, said he was at school how they spent the money they received. The "student premium" for the most disadvantaged children, would double the DEA said, but it was not until 2014-15.

allegations that women awakening "stuff" them on sex to overcome the natural repugnance, ignores the fact that pleasure is subjective

Nothing more newspapers like talking about sex and other things so disgusting that a group of psychologists in the Netherlands have developed the perfect search, some women wake up, get them to make disgusting things and see what happens. It was a little quieter than the Bushtucker trial on I'm a Celebrity ... but perhaps meaningless. The researchers say that the aversion to women "nasty" things is reduced when sexual arousal. What is good, scientists say, because sex is a bit unpleasant. Leading "This is how they catch men!" Holders. Apparently, "feels the saliva, sweat, semen and body are among the strongest disgust triggers" that makes it remarkable run like rabbits given half lucky when we really fleshy bags of saliva and perspiration. No, not so remarkable.

clear that what people find disgusting varies considerably. I find it disgusting mayonnaise. It's disgusting, it stinks and makes everything it touches taste 100 times worse. However, I recognize that every market prepackaged sandwiches disagree with me. But I realize that my aversion is subjective (and the rest of you are unknown).

The research itself was strange. They selected 90 women college students and put them into three groups. A group of women in pornography (sorry, an "erotic film"), a group of extreme sports (which is supposed to excite, but not sexually), and the other group showed a film of a train (something neutral and does not cause or exciting).

All the women were heterosexual and had "sexual dysfunction", but researchers do not seem to see if they were disgusted by or simply not turn to porn. This could be the erotic trash and the fact that he was called "Gast" (Client) makes me imagine that was created in the 80s and women to participate in pearls and men's shoes bridge (no one can be excited by a man on deck shoes). Even the "no wake" groups can actually be triggered by watching sports could be interesting fetish or train (yes, they exist and you can go to a coffee fetish gear, unsurprisingly, Japan). The participants then had to watch your movie for a few minutes, make a "disgusting" homework, watch the movie for a few minutes, do another job, and repeat for a total of 16 tasks. Of course, he could not maintain an erection with this lady. A text message is enough to distract me from my excitement alone.

is disgusting if he spat on the mouth of a fascist right March. When you cut your finger as a child and his mother put in her mouth to stop the flow, which was good. Opinions on the saliva and sputum are again different cultures, in fact, the Chinese have been told to stop spitting in the race for the 2008 Olympics.

Assuming everyone is disgusting saliva, sweat and semen is not just a guess, but it also ignores marginal people really are sexually. I think it is safe to say that most of us are fed crap. In general, in all contexts that you care, I would say "No, thank you" to the offer of a turd. However, I am fully aware that some people are inclined eschatological. I would even be willing to bet that some people involved in love making mayonnaise - which are, I think, the real evil


But I think with this study, noting that sperm dog whistle. You can not escape the feeling that you are trying to say that the only reason women give Blowjob is that they wake up to the point of disgust. This works on the assumption that women are not into sex sex, oral sperm is considered disgusting, and that women should be biologically "tricked" into sex unpleasant.

wrong.
sexual arousal and disgust influenced by social and biological factors. Disgust can be defined by culture, time, context, class, gender and religion. And there is little on earth more variables that people are sexually excited. So I think the dilemma researcher "why do people still manage to have sex fun in spite of the many disgusting stimuli that are involved in sexual behavior" most revealing his views on sex and disgust. Either that, or just have really dirty sex.

When asked to speak in a debate between the two sides of the abortion divide, I was nervous - but he finally impressed

Perhaps a conversation between positions in favor of abortion and anti-abortion? In this perspective, both parties have a lot to talk about and no way to make it civil, which means that the abortion debate often falls into one of two formats: you tend to end up with a single point of view in meetings each party agrees strongly with itself, or open confrontation where the two views face to face with banners and slogans. Beliefs is a good game, but is more likely to spend the division to convince his opponents that he has a point.

Under the rhetoric and abstraction, each thinks the other side is complicit in mass murder. Those who oppose it, abortion, the slaughter of the unborn child. For most of those who believe in the right of women to choose from (including myself), the prohibition is the direct cause of death, where women are forced to resort to illegal and dangerous operations or pregnancy continues detriment of women's health and well-being.

not only that each party thinks the other is totally wrong, but that we believe in fair justice in our own positions. So when I agreed to speak in a debate on freedom of expression, anti-abortion protesters and women. Rights and limitations - organized by the British Pregnancy Advisory Service (BPAS) and maintained at Conway Hall in London - I was a little scared

Even considering that the debate is not about the morality of abortion directly - in fact, we talked about how we talk about abortion - there was still a huge potential abuse and personal acrimony especially as we were talking on the eve of the trial of two activists of the anti-abortion Abortion 67 public order offenses. The question of what constitutes legitimate protest against abortion was about to be challenged in the courts and in our scenario.

It was not so uniformly. There was some regret on both sides that opening statements Minichiello Williams were largely a condemnation of abortion itself, and the discomfort she chose to show a film directed by Abort 67, including images for explicit and bloody. (For his part, Minichiello Williams said later she thought what she sees as "an approach based on the rights of women" was "intellectually dishonest" and had "tried to restore integrity." ) However, somehow, was useful for this particular example forms of freedom of expression under discussion.

inevitable hot moments: I briefly raised his voice when I felt my own experience of crisis pregnancy had been kidnapped by anti-abortion speakers. But there was also a good behavior shown by both parties, and I think most of the rooms were thankful when Peter D Williams the right to life of the campaign urged anti-abortion position abide by the terms of the debate rather than seeking a general debate on abortion. Was also educational when a disturbing element for abortion should be silenced by the President: even if the debate was largely offenses committed in the anti-abortion side, it is clear that both parties have an occasional need for apply the label in its ranks

Of all the people involved in the debate, Minichiello Williams expressed his dissatisfaction with the result. The rest - I, Wind-Cowie, green and Furedi - admitted he was pleasantly surprised by the level of debate produced an ideological divide. And have outlined some basic principles, it might even be possible to find a safe haven. I can say that, as it seems out of place guards around the clinic and in bad taste, I must tolerate freedom of expression within certain limits, in the same way, those anti-abortion protesters affiliations agree that required to ensure that the freedom of expression fits into the harassment of individual women, as it has done previously.

"This is not political theater and women who visit clinics are not accessories," Furedi says at one point. As a matter of conscience becomes an ideological war, people suffer the most are those who profess to care more parties: women are involved in decision support and sometimes painful or not to continue the pregnancy. Anti-abortion and pro-choice always agree, but for the love of women, everyone is obliged to maintain civil disagreement.
