I’ll be in court today as a woman is sentenced for ending her pregnancy beyond the time limit during lockdown.
It is understood that she was not able to attend a scan, and did not know how advanced it was.
She pleaded guilty to the offence, which carries a max. life sentence.

You were lucky. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah. And you try and tell the young people of today that ... they won't believe you.
