The aim of Clarion is to provide information for the benefit of the public
with an emphasis
on independent original reporting over analysis or opinion.
By policy and in fact, this website does not use any javascript.
It is a non-commercial website which does not carry advertisements
and does not attempt to make a financial return in any way.
Clarion started in 2001 as a group
of friends in Cambridge opposed to British involvement in bombing Afghanistan and
the proposed war of aggression against Iraq in 2003, but it no longer
campaigns or presents any explicit editorial position.
It is now maintained by Stephen Hewitt.
