Adam Price, Brexit is like a train and someone must urgently pull the emergency cord before it is too late.

Why do that when only the pampered passengers in first class are panicking? Here in second class, where all the thick, uneducated working class plebs who back Brexit are sitting, the view from our window is certainly improving.

Uncontroll­ed mass immigratio­n is down by a third, we will soon be taking back control of our borders, laws and money and, if we stay on the right track, we will shortly be arriving at our final destinatio­n – wellpaid, full employment.

This is as true in the case of abortion brought about by “medical” means as it is when there is “surgical” interventi­on.

Medical abortion normally takes place in a clinic and involves the woman taking two pills, each separated by a two/three-day interval. However, on June 29 the Welsh Minister for Health announced that, henceforth, pregnant women in Wales who choose a medical abortion can, if they so wish, take the second of the two pills “at home”.
