Amanda Millar is a solicitor who made LGBT+ history by being the first openly gay President of the Law Society of Scotland. When becoming President for the 2020/2021 term, there was nothing to suggest that the Scottish legal profession would be affected by lockdown, coronavirus, or that the Rule of Law would be attacked by government ministers. Nonetheless, Amanda has made it clear that the Rule of Law is not to be politicized, that the profession is for everyone, and explains to Drew McCusker that #TransRightsAreHumanRights.
The Glass Network's Deborah Allan and Laurie Anderson also disucss the importance of queer role models in the legal sector, and why the younger generation are showing everyone how to be inclusive.
