I don't think you can draw any conclusions - other than the fact that no women voted in favour.

And all the 'Ayes' were middle-aged guys - most of them married with families.

Oh that makes sense! (Not)

John @#3,
You said it! they have,..'not-a-clue'

Maybe they should of shown a video clip of a Baby in the Womb at 24weeks, before being allowed to cast their vote.

I 'put my life on it' the outcome would have been of a very different nature!

Soo here we are in the year MMVIII and still act like,..

'Ape People'

I am at the least! 'Totally Disgusted' at the outcome!


Scotsman News! You were,.. 'Quite Right' to print the names, now we know where we all stand!

That's the right one.....its all men who vote against women.

Ive been reading the other articles on this, where the lets be clear ANTI-ABORTIONISTS (proponents for back street abortions), complain now that this is all the fault of Labour, Reason more Conservatives (who have very few female MPs) are in favour of the back street abortionists in relative term to Labour.

But we've just had a Catholic and other religious campaign, (various Protestant and Muslim sects)to make it a Free vote, not whipped by any party and Brown agreed.

This is typical of the supporters of back street abortion, nothing ever satisfies them! They are right and everyone else is wrong.

And what about Salmond!
