Spinwatch and Criticisms against it

During the election, I referred to a site called "Spinwatch" which tried to expose what was behind political "spin". I subsequently received a comment claiming that this site was "biased" and so I did some investigations. I have found that there are ongoing criticisms and allegations (many of which are political) between an individual and the website. My site is not aimed at being political and I do not wish to be involved in such campaigns. Therefore I am removing the link but it is very easy to find the website and the criticism of it through search engines.

No More Violence Against Women

The Women’s Institute in the UK is responsible for organising all types of activities from local events to nationwide events. Last year they decided to start a campaign to pressurise all forms of media to regulate themselves and not promote the sale of women's services which often involved the trafficking of women into the sex trade. Although I believe this campaign has stopped there are other ones that they are involved with particularly the "No More Violence Against Women" campaign.
