IS SOPHIE ANDERSON OK?/ RUSSIAN CONVERSI...

Graeme Smith
About this episode
Graeme Smith is in Manchester this week talking to transmasculine-non binary legend Paris Munro from the Gaydio breakfast show about if things are OK with former cock destroyers star and OUTCAST UK guest Sophie Anderson. The LGBTQ meme star's partner (who appeared on this show with her just a few months ago) announced she was dead on social media and then backtracked days later causing deep concern amongst queer fans.This episode begins with a roundup of the world's queer news this week.. including:The UK home secretary Suella Braverman has doubled down on her anti LGBTQ+ asylum comments in response to criticism from Elton John that her views lack “compassion”. Sir Elton also said the senior tory was “legitimising hate and violence”.Incredibly disturbing news coming out of Russia over the last few days. A transgender woman has spoken about being forced to undergo conversion therapy, involving masculinity training and being ordered to castrate a pig. California has signed new legislation to help LGBTQ+ youth. The new laws include LGBTQ+ cultural competency training by public school teachers and staff, the establishment of an advisory task force to identify LGBTQ+ pupil needs across the state and amending the foster care vetting process to make sure ensure LGBTQ+ youth in the foster system are not placed in anti-LGBTQ+ foster homes.
