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

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
