Paul,
thank you for your suggestion. Good news! – Leicester Mail fits our inclusion criteria. We have researched the BL catalogue and it is available to us for digitisation. We have added the following years to our Digitisation Plan: 1865-1870We are looking forward to digitising this!
Please be aware that until we have received the material into our studio and checked it, it is not possible to guarantee that it will be digitised.
Best wishes,
Team BNAAn error occurred while saving the comment Ned Newitt commentedThe coverage of Leicester is limited in the C20th century. It would be better to scan the Leicester Evening Mail for this period.

The newspaper advocated a whole range of reforms including universal suffrage and republicanism. Sales of the National Reformer reached 5,000 but in 1861 Joseph Barker left the journal because he disagreed with Bradlaugh's advocacy of birth control.
BIradlaugh recruited Besant to work on the National Reformer, and over the next few years wrote a series articles on marriage and the political status of women.
