Episode 9. TRANSGENDER RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS Reasons to be Cheerful with Ed Miliband & Geoff Lloyd

Hello! With increasing newspaper scare stories about transgender rights, we thought it might be an idea to give some airtime to the perspective and voice of trans people so those of us who aren't experts on the issue can understand a bit more. We talk to a parent of a trans child, Joe, award-winning writer Paris Lees, and Dr Helen Webberley, a doctor who works with trans young people who explain why advances in trans rights are Reasons To Be Cheerful.
Ed and Geoff open the listener art gallery and break up to travel the world.
AND
Miranda Kane joins us to recommend we haunt political buildings, get Benedict Cumberbatch to her house and shut everyone up after a million words
