Rejected petition Ensure the Ban on Conversion Therapy Includes Transgender People

The Government announced earlier today a U-Turn on their plans on banning conversion therapy in the UK, stating that they will keep it in place for transgender individuals. This is a fundamental breach of the Human Rights Act and the UK’s own discriminatory law.

This will assist in preventing the vast amount of trans deaths experienced every year. It will ensure a trans community that will thrive. It will aid in putting a stop to normalising discriminatory practice.
