2SER: the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersex Discrimination and Transphobia.

17 May is IDAHOBIT, the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersex Discrimination and Transphobia.

Alastair Lawrie, PIAC’s Director of Policy and Advocacy, spoke to 2SER Breakfast about the history of IDAHOBIT and why it’s still an important day LGBTIQ+ rights and discrimination.
