Both articles are about the response from Tory MPs on this morning following Tory MP Jacob Rees-Mogg’s comments about his belief that abortion is always wrong even in the cases of incest or rape and his belief that gay marriage is wrong.
Many People up and down the country have been shocked and appalled by comments that many people see as extremely archaic and because of this the Labour party and Labour media will want to use these comments against the Conservatives to make people less likely to want to vote for the Conservatives, whilst many people in the Conservative Party and media will be looking to distance the party from the comments to avoid public outcry, with only small numbers of the most extreme followers of the Conservative party still supporting Mogg and sticking by his comments.
The headline of the Mirror article is “ 'Tolerance is in both directions': Iain Duncan-Smith says Jacob Rees-Mogg has the right to oppose abortion and gay marriage” which states that Duncan-Smith says that he was right to make those archaic comments and the headline implies that Duncan-Smith may share these beliefs (which he doesn’t, some evidence of this is that he voted for gay marriage, which is mentioned further down the article) This shows a bias towards Labour and the left which stacks up against the Mirror’s claim of supporting the Labour party since 1945.
The headline of the telegraph article on the same subject is a complete juxtaposition. It is notable, however, that this article features the opinions of various Tory MPs and not just Iain Duncan-Smith as highlighted in the Mirror article. The headline is “Tory MPs line up to disagree with Jacob Rees-Mogg's 'utterly abhorrent' views on abortion” which strongly impilies the message that so many Tories want made clear, that the views of Mogg are no synonymous with the views of the Conservative Party
