Sir: Your leading article of 30 December defends Tony Blair's voting for abortion on the grounds that he will not impose his morality on his neighbours. I look forward to hearing parliamentary candidates say that although they personally favour abortion, they will vote against it on the grounds that they cannot impose their morality on unborn children.
