A pro-life argument?

Gordon Brown has said child benefit will in future be paid before a child is born. The BBC reports that "Every mother will get additional child benefit in the last months of pregnancy from April 2009". So the unborn child really is a child and should therefore be protected in the womb, not aborted, especially when viable.

Another note from an increased tax. Putting up tax on air travellers will do absolutely nothing for the environment. Green taxes make me see red. They are merely another excuse for the Chancellor to put his greedy fingers ever deeper into my pocket.
