Talk by Tom Robinson, Musician and Broadcaster
In the late 80s a Sunday tabloid printed the story ‘Britain's Number One Gay In Love With Girl Biker - My Passion For Blonde, By Rocker Robinson!’ While the interview was bogus, the outspoken activist and ‘Glad-to-be-Gay’ singer was in a relationship with a woman. Tom takes us on his personal history tour from teenage self-loathing and recovery, along ‘2468 Motorways’, to being a son and becoming a father. And why he is happy as ‘a gay man in love with a woman’.
