The Dreyfus Affair

Stonewall Has Abandoned Gays & Lesbians. Trans Radical Activism Has Miso...

Actor James Dreyfus, best known for his roles on BBC sitcoms 

The Thin Blue Line and Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, 

joins us on the #SWYSI to discuss his experience of cancel culture and his thoughts on identity politics, trans radical activists and the impact they are having on the arts, gays & lesbians and wider society. 

For signing a letter in support of J.K. Rowling and another letter calling on Stonewall to embrace greater tolerance of different viewpoints, Dreyfus found his name erased from material relating to his appearances as "The Master" in Doctor Who audio books. He also became maligned as a transphobe.
