Writer and Broadcaster Livsey has been busy fighting for justice after Kerrang 105.2FM broadcast a private telephone conversation without his consent.
The conversation involved Livsey comforting Tim Shaw, a presenter on Kerrang 105.2fm in Birmingham, as he confided he was bisexual and "in love" with Livsey. Tim Shaw asked lots of questions to Livsey about details of his gay sexual practices and intimate bed room secrets and Livsey answered them in great length and detail thinking he was helping a close friend overcome a difficult time in his life. Livsey also talked to Tim about emotional feelings involved in his sexuality. Livsey remembers "comming out" and how difficult and distressing it was, so of course he was able to understand Tim's apparent distressing feelings. Tim Shaw was secretly recording this conversation, was not genuinely "comming out" as he broadcast the conversation to 1.5 million listeners in the UK on Kerrang 105.2fm as a joke.
Livsey later found what happened was extremely shocked and emotional about the incident he attempted suicide twice by taking a mixture of tablets and liquid solutions. Livsey suffered a deep nervous breakdown which has destroyed his confidence and his ability to be proud and open about his sexuality. Livsey has been through some extremely difficult times as a result of what happened.
Keep tuning in for the next update. Justice for Livsey!
