Tom shakespeare, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you. Its great to be here. Its great to have you here. Now, in your personal life, in your professional life, everything has been intertwined in terms of your campaigning work, your academic work. I just wonder whether you ever for a moment considered going into something entirely disconnected from your own personal circumstances, Something Like accountancy, law, geology. And you know what . There are short people, restricted growth people, in all of those professions. There are farmers, teachers, solicitors, everything, who are short. But i didnt go that way. And so, as a social scientist, ive always been interested in what ive experienced. And so, obviously, disability has to be top of the list. Let me ask you about growing up, because your family has its own history, which is important, i think, to talk about. Your grandfather, it seems, experienced a mutation, a Genetic Mutation. My father. So he was born in 1927. William shakespeare unfo
