Islington Survivors Network
In the early 90’s Islington was rocked by a scandal of abuse in its kid’s homes. The victims of that abuse are still seeking justice and answers for what they suffered.
Dr Liz Davies was the social worker for Islington who originally blew the whistle on the abuse scandal. She left the council and since then has been working with survivors of the care homes, forming the Islington Survivors Network. Jo from CCRadio is one of those survivors. She spoke with Liz and Jane about the abuse and the work the Islington Survivors Network are doing now.

Post Porn - Gay Fringe Festival Challenge to the Porn Industries
Annie Sprinkle has been leading a very particular challenge to the porn industry for many years inspiring the Post Porn social movement. At the London Gay Fringe Festival earlier this year, Spanish artists from the new Transfeminism movement articulated the role of the post porn movement and sexual dissidence in the shake up of repressive aspects of Spanish politics and culture. Denise O’Connor was there to talk to participants about the performance and the sexual politics around it. Also see the comment below!
