Does the debate on trans rights pose a problem for the gay
liberation movement? HARDtalk's Sarah Montague speaks to the CEO
of Stonewall, Ruth Hunt. Stonewall was founded 30 years ago to
campaign for gay and lesbian rights. When Ruth Hunt became its
chief executive, she extended its work to include the transgender
community. But many Stonewall members have been upset at the line
the leadership has taken on gender recognition – that anyone can
declare themselves to be male or female – and at their refusal to
share a platform with anyone who disagrees.
