Saw her at bristol earlier this year, and apart from being an incredible (and attractive) comedian, she is an all-round astounding feminist, even as as 10 year member of the ILGA, i've never heard someone commandeer a whole liberation movement the way she does.
I know it's not her priority now, and I wish her all the success in her career (she has her own personal show airing on BBC3 next year, maybe even a slight chance of an airing on BBC2!).. but I hope she still finds time for the british LGBT movement. Even if it's just playing herself as she did in peep show, I know its made more people take stand than many other failed and rather crass movements. I tend to find comedy makes people relate to these issues more than any other medium.
All the best,
Naffy
