EU referendum campaigns are failing to engage with women

"A lot of men in politics suddenly woke up to the issue of women in politics when they realised: hey, there are votes in this"  -Theresa May

With the EU referendum debate being pretty male dominated so far, it's no surprise to discover that both sides of the campaign have failed to engage with women voters. Today we hear from the chief executive of the Fawcett Society on the findings of new research carried out by the organisation which shows women are frustrated by the quality of the EU debate.

Elsewhere, we take a closer look at Zac Goldsmith's connections to the very people he has attacked Sadiq Khan for having associations with. In fact, our next piece shows that it's not just the Tory candidate for mayor of London who has met with some of these people but also a former cabinet minister and a number of other Conservative MPs.
