David Norris is an Irish scholar, an independent Senator and a civil rights activist icon. Aside from being a presidential candidate in 2011, you may recognise him as the named claimant in Norris v Ireland, where the European Court of Human Rights ruled that the Irish law criminalising same sex activities was contrary to Article 8, ECHR. In amongst all that, he also tells Drew McCusker what he thinks about Glasgow.
We also discuss the incredible life and career of Derek Ogg QC with friend and former Glasgow Bar Association, Ann Ritchie. As a criminal lawyer, she worked with Derek since her traineeship, and gives an insight to a man who used his advocacy skills inside and outside of the court.
