On BBC Radio 4 Today programme on Wednesday March 21 Robert Piggott, the BBC Religion Correspondent will be interviewing James Parker of the Journey into Manhood training programme from the People can Change Organisation. Parker contends that it is unwise of the government to bring in legislation about homosexuality when it does not have a full understanding of homosexuality and the possibility of change. This will be between 7.10 a.m. and 9.a.m. GMT, but not between 0800 and 0830.

As far as I know this is a British media first. An ex-gay representative has never been on a leading news programme before AND the style of Piggott’s interviewing and reporting means that Parker will be able to get his message across. I’ll try and post a link as soon as the recording is on the BBC website.

Update - It looks as though the segment will be broadcast at 0830 GMT this morning.

    [...] As mentioned before, James Parker of Living Waters UK was part of a piece on Wednesday morning on SORS. The significance was that this was, to the best of my knowledge, the first time this major UK news programme had had an ex-gay as part of a report.
