Episode description
Bindmans represented a 17-year-old gay man, bringing an application to the European commission of human rights in 1994 on his behalf in the case of Sutherland v UK. The application argued that discrimination between gay men and gay women with regard to the age of consent was unjustified. In this episode, Stephen Grosz KC (Hon) discusses the case, how it led to the law being changed and his thoughts now that time has passed.
