It depends on what you call birth control. Black and white cold hard facts then yes abortion is a form of birth control as it prevents a birth. It is not, however, in the same league as condoms, the pill, implant or even the morning after pill. Calling it “birth control” trivialises a very invasive and mentally damaging procedure. Any man that thinks that women have abortions frivolously needs to talk to a few and see the mental anguish that they often cause and impacts that go on for many years beyond the operation.

I was interested in the statistics on abortion.

So far in Question Time, JRM is doing an admirable job. Keep him away from Brexit and sexual/reproduction issues and his intelligence shines through.
Do you find him useless as a politician or as a future leader? Or both?Zod said:
es, as I've said earlier in the thread, he is clever enough to have thought this through, so he is an intellectual and moral coward for not doing so.
I guess he just can't rectify that internal position.Interesting that a man who normally comes across as so logical and have such a colossal blindspot,

In agreement with you there Zod. 
His strength I think is from people who don't know him, just 'hear' or 'read' about him and jump to that knee-jerk reaction of 'Oh god, no'.
Then when an opportunity arises whereby they can actually listen to him (as the audience in question) you see him gain support. He succinctly and very articulately puts his point across so calmly (unlike any other politico) and it gets people to look at each other with that sort of 'Well, well' nod. You can see them thinking 'Are we misjudging this guy a tad hastily?' It's a slowly, slowly, drip, drip gathering of support.
Where will it be in a couple of years ...or sooner perhaps?
