Closed Ban LGBT+ Conversion Therapy

Closed on

The Government must keep its promise to the LGBT+ community and outright ban conversion therapy on all LGBT+ including Trans people, making it illegal for any organisations to be able to put LGBT+ people through this. Show solidarity by promoting safe, humane treatment of their LGBT+ constituency.

It is unthinkable that in 2022 Conversion Therapy can still be legal.
It is an abhorrent, shameful, and demeaning.
It can cause severe mental health issues, as well as strengthening an LGBT person's dysphoria.
Conversion Therapy is akin to torture, it is inhumane.
Without this ban, the government, as well as many LGBT members of our society, will have their progress taken back by so many steps, instead of forward.
LGBT people should be protected as much as everyone else already are.
