Shownotes

This week's podcast from the Peter Tatchell Foundation - Be The Change - revisits the Bermondsey by-election forty years on.

In 1983, Peter was the gay Labour candidate and was subjected to 100+ assaults, his home was attacked and a bullet put through his front door. It's been described as the most violent and homophobic election in British history - and we have the inside story!
