@whynothereu fit for purpose and shift towards a balanced culture change that embraces diversity, inclusion, and equity. If the UK radio can do it, then so can Irish radio!

Well done to team @whynothereu on such important work 👏 4/4

[FairPlé @FairPle]

Why Not Her? just released their Annual Radio Data Report on UK Radio 2023/2024
We @FairPle congratulate UK Radio on a landmark year for gender equality in music with women taking the lead in the Top 100 songs on UK Radio. This significant achievement is not only a triumph.. 1/4

[FairPlé @FairPle]

of the Top 100 songs are by Irish female artists (and only 1 living artist; Jazzy).
We echo @whynothereu and call for action! It is time for those who work in Irish radio broadcasting and playlisting to set aside unconscious biases and a process and system that's clearly not 3/4
