Petition Allow Parliamentary time for the Health and Equality Acts (Amendment) Bill

We are very concerned by current legislation and its application relating to sex and gender. We believe that this Bill provides the right solutions by defining sex as biological sex and preventing children from accessing irreversible treatment, and would protect women and girls.

More details

We believe sex is biological and cannot be changed. We think the current law has been exploited and this should be amended to clarify this as biological sex. We believe too many children are being allowed to access hormone therapy which we think they should not be receiving. Too many biological women and girls are threatened by biological men entering their safe spaces.
