Rejected petition Reverse the Decision to Scrap the Gender Recognition Act Consultation Results

Uphold planned reform of the Gender Recognition Act 2010.

More details

The government held a consultation regarding the Gender Recognition Act, to which 70% of 100,000 responses received were overwhelmingly in favour of improving lives of trans people.

They have decided to scrap the results because they “believe the results were skewed by an avalanche of responses generated by trans rights groups.”

This is unacceptable.
