Episode 26: Roe Vs Wade: impact, consequences and reality

Roe Vs Wade being overturned is insane in so many ways it's hard to know where to start. Is it that a party that hasn't won the popular vote in over 25 years is making executive decisions that overturn enshrined right to basic healthcare for over 50% of American citizens? Is it further proof that extremism and zealotry are devouring America as it thrashes? Or is it the very real and varied stories of people whose lives will be ruined, cut short or snuffed out by the implications this has?

I spoke at length to the wonderful Gemma Clark, a Scottish teacher pushing Scottish government to do more to enshrine rights as the fundamentalists who helped this happen turn their beady eyes on the UK. Gemma is knowledgeable about everything to and around this topic, passionate and is someone I highly recommend you check out and speak with because her knowledge and passion are two of the various weapons we'll need to harness to stop this in its tracks, and help the people overseas whose lives will be upturned by this ridiculous decision.
