Today we have a piece on women's reproductive rights in Scotland and the impact the devolution of abortion laws could have. The writer points to examples of women already having to travel to England for late term abortions as an example of why pro-choice campaigners are concerned.

We also have news of Royal Mail workers who flouted strike laws yesterday to show solidarity with a disabled colleague. The local Communication Workers Union representative said bosses had repeatedly blocked the return to work of a member of staff with MS.
