Currently the Google News app on iOS doesn’t offer widgets.

You can do that too, but not with Google. Apple News has a ton of different topics you can subscribe to that's just as good (or better) as google news.

Do you use Flipboard?
There is a widget for it that does what you want I believe.

Unfortunately the Google Now feature is not available as a widget on iOS. You can download the Google app and turn on the Discover option for the same feed.

No you will not be have the feed on the home screen. Google has not allowed this in any of their widgets.
