Welcome...

  • Hello, we are a group of UK-based women journalists led by Alison Clarke and have set up this blog as a 'not for profit' venture...

    WomensViewsOnNews.org is an online women's news service that provides stories about women that have appeared in a variety of news outlets. Our aim is to attract writers from around the world who file news stories which are either about women, or which specifically focus on a woman's experience of that breaking news story. We're also interested in publishing comment pieces about current news stories, so if you have an opinion and want to voice it, now's your chance .

    To get things moving, we're writing up stories as we become aware of them from a range of news sources but would very much appreciate your input. We look forward to hearing from you.

    On this morning's Today programme, Anna Bird, Head of Policy of the Fawcett Society and Director General of the Institute of Economic Affairs Mark Littlewood analyse whether the coalition's claim to be progressive is under threat from the IFS report that has criticised the budget as 'regressive' (read WVoN's coverage of the report here).

    Listen to the programme on BBC Radio 4.
