As we and others have previously reported, and as the Observer reported on Sunday, hundreds of millions of US dollars are currently being pumped into the UK from the Trump-aligned anti-rights movement, who are specifically aiming to reverse decades of progress.

The law should protect victims - not enable abusive fundamentalists who believe in demonic possession.
We’ve been campaigning on this issue for 45+ years. In 2018, under Theresa May’s Government, it looked like progress was finally within reach. Four Prime Ministers later, we’re still waiting.

The majority of LGBT people are non-religious, and very few religious groups offer same-sex marriages. Humanist celebrants always have – and always will. Many LGBT couples want a fully recognised humanist wedding. It's time they were given that right.

The idea that acknowledging the existence of gay people will somehow 'turn' children gay is not only ignorant – it’s laughable. If that were true, every gay person would have ended up straight. Representation doesn’t convert anyone. It just makes it safer for people to be who they already are.
