Significant step made toward equalising anti-LGBT+ hate crime law

After widespread support of Rachel Taylor MP’s amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill, which was tabled in the House of Commons, the government has committed to bringing equality to anti-LGBT+ hate crime law.

Galop’s statement on the leaked government proposal to make anti-LGBT+ hate crimes “aggravated offences”

We welcome the leaked proposal which indicates the Home Office’s recommendation to make crimes motivated by hate towards LGBT+ and disabled people equal to hate crimes motivated by religious and racial prejudice – something Galop has long called for.

Statement in response to the continued criminal ban on puberty blockers

As LGBTQ+ sector organisations, we are deeply disappointed that the UK Government has decided to continue criminalising the prescription of puberty suppressing medicines for trans children and young people outside of a proposed NHS research study.
