This week, the highest court in the land, will rule on abortion in Northern Ireland. The Supreme Court in London will decide whether or not the law as it stands breaches human rights. At the moment, Northern Ireland is the only region in the UK where women cannot get an abortion, unless their life is in danger. Last week's abortion referendum result across the border, in the Republic, has shone a spotlight on the situation in Northern Ireland and pro-choice demonstrators have been demanding change.

An exhibition currently running at the Leeds Industrial Museum celebrates the stories of the Queens of Industry. Inspired by the tradition of May Queens, these women represented some of Britain's greatest industries, from coal to cotton and railways to wool. The tradition began in the 1920s and continued into the 1980s. It took young women out of their day to day lives to become Queens who would promote their industry and represent their fellow workers. Louise Adamson has been to Leeds to have a tour of the exhibition with the curator, John McGoldrick, and to hear from some of the Queens themselves.
