Dawn Butler MP, Shadow Minister for
Women and Equalities,
commenting on the publication of Stonewall’s LGBT in Britain: Trans Report,
said:
“Stonewall’s findings are deeply
concerning. Transphobia is not OK and will never be OK.
“Labour is committed to tackling this
issue and to supporting the Trans community. We urge the government to ensure
that the new guidance being developed on Sex and Relationship Education is
LGBT+ inclusive.
“Reforming the Gender recognition Act
will be key to ensuring Trans equality. But we are still waiting on the
government to publish the consultation on updating the Act. The government must
follow through on its commitment to reform.”
