When Cathy Newman wrote an article in the Daily Telegraph last week promoting her Dispatches documentary on Britain’s pro-life groups, including the Good Counsel Network and 40 Days for Life, she wrote about the end of the film where she decides to confront a “zealous anti-abortion protester”, named Justyna, outside an abortion clinic in south-west London.
The scene is supposed to be the high point of Newman’s film, where she finally stands up to a pro-life bully. But as I watched, what I saw was a broadcast journalist with a first-class degree from Oxford following a Polish immigrant along the street, rapidly firing questions at her. There was certainly a Goliath on the prowl, but was it Justyna?
