Outline:
The first talk will aim to give attendees knowledge of legal issues facing the LGBTQ+ community outside of England and Wales. The second talk will aim to use the recent Channel 4 series It’s A Sin as a springboard to looking at the historico-legal development of LGBTQ legislation and policy in England and Wales in the 1980s and the impact of those events today.
