Japanese politics remains hugely male-dominated, although the number of women in the parliament rose at the last election – and Takaichi became the first female prime minister in October. “Before plenary sessions start, truly so many women lawmakers have to form long queues in front of the restroom,” said Yasuko Komiyama, from the opposition Constitutional Democratic party. Seventy-two of 465 lower house lawmakers are women, up from 45 in the previous parliament, as are 74 of the 248 upper house members. Takaichi, an admirer of Margaret Thatcher, said before becoming prime minister that she wanted “Nordic” levels of gender balance. “In a way, this symbolises how the number of female lawmakers has increased,” she told reporters, according to her party’s website, adding that she hoped for more equality in other areas of life.

The Iranian rial dropped to 1.42m to the US dollar on Sunday, an unprecedented devaluation which sent inflation soaring.

Staff at Norway’s largest women’s health organisation have seen a rise in the number of women reporting abuse and sexual assault at the hands of their partners ahead of the rape trial of a member of the royal family, saying they hope the case helps to “break taboos”. “Staff at our women’s health centres have seen an increase in women who make contact to ask for help and advice after experiences of violence and sexual assault. “In an otherwise democratic, egalitarian and liberal country the Norwegian royal family occupies a bit of a blind spot and has traditionally seen high levels of support. However, many Norwegians are now reconsidering their position on the royal family, who were previously viewed as a relatively harmless bunch,” he said. That is not fair on anybody.”But Torgeir Pedersen Krokfjord, a co-author of the book White Lines, Black Sheep, which published the drug allegations, said the royal family remained popular among most Norwegians and had emerged relatively unscathed.

About 40 people are believed to have been killed and 115 injured after a fire tore through a crowded bar during a New Year’s Eve party in the Swiss ski resort of Crans-Montana. Two women told the French broadcaster BFMTV that they were inside Le Constellation when they saw a bartender carrying a female member of staff on his shoulders. Photograph: Police Cantonale Valaisanne/APThe morning after the tragedy, two women held each other and wept in front of the police cordon outside Le Constellation, while mourners left flowers.

This is one of the hotspots in Wiltshire for hare coursing, in which criminal gangs set dogs – usually greyhounds or lurchers – on the mammals. Wiltshire police, one of the UK police forces leading the fight against the coursers, say hare coursing gangs are terrorising the countryside. But the concern is that a farmer will lose it.”In the past year, hare coursing and poaching offences rose by more than 20% in Wiltshire. One Wiltshire farm worker suffered leg and hand injuries when he was knocked to the ground by a car after confronting suspected hare coursers. We’ll pile in to try and catch the buggers.”He said hare coursers were enmeshed in international criminal networks.
