By Emily Carver | 24 March 2021

By Cllr Ross Mackinnon | 18 March 2021

By Dolly Theis | 9 March 2021

Radical: Despite lockdown, the gender wars rage on. Here’s our round up of the biggest issues of the week.

One of the most striking developments was Mordaunt criticising the use of the word ‘woman’ in the Ministerial and other Maternity Allowances Bill.

By Radical | 3 March 2021
