News articles can be viewed, filtered & sorted by cat­egory in the News listing & the homepage

CPN asked for this filter and sort enhancement to the News views.

We need to review how News articles are displayed on the home page and the News page. I would suggest looking at Masonry as we've discussed previously. We could also explore improving text truncation and other formatting improvements to clean up the general display, and attempt to harmonise content display across the site into one common card-based pattern to simplify style sheet management.

Indeed, we might even go as far as to remove the News page altogether and make the News view into the homepage.
