When people can gather openly, participate in public life and stand up for what they believe in, democracy becomes stronger. Every Pride march is an expression of those freedoms in action. That's why Pride matters, not only for LGBTQI+ communities, but for democracy itself 👇

It will result in the exclusion of trans and intersex people from public life, and may lead some to avoid public spaces altogether. It would also leave individuals and businesses to deal with decisions about who can access services, while costing millions of pounds to follow the new rules.
