The practice ended years ago. The shame did not. That is what conversion practices are built to do, and why we need to scrutinise this Bill fully. #BanConversionPractices metro.co.uk/2026/08/08/i...

As Pride month unfolds, LGBT+ Humanists and Central London Humanists bring together three leading voices to reflect on the state of LGBT+ equality, visibility and community in 2026. With growing challenges in some areas and important advances in others, what reasons do we have to celebrate, and what work remains to be done?

Netherlands banned conversion practices, 57 votes to 15. Meanwhile, in the UK, this abuse is still legal, harming children and vulnerable adults for being their true selves. This is not therapy; it is torture. Abuse is abuse. UK government, act now. #BanConversionPractices @heatherpaterson.co.uk

As Chair of Ban Conversion Practices Coalition, I'm disappointed the Government has failed its deadline to publish a draft Bill. 7 years of promises, leaving our community exposed to harm. Let me be clear: we're not giving up and will hold them to account until a trans-inclusive ban is published ✊🏽

An infographic titled "OUR CAMPAIGN CONTINUES," featuring a determined message that advocates will not let the UK government drop legislation to ban conversion practices. The graphic calls for a draft Bill before the summer recess and invites the public to "STAND WITH US" by sharing why the ban matters to them. The design includes a background image of people celebrating with a Pride flag and uses a consistent pink and purple colour palette.

A ban on conversion practices is long overdue and harm continues while we wait. This is abuse. It must end. We need a fully inclusive ban; no loopholes, no exceptions. Add your voice to the Ban Conversion Practices Coalition Survey bit.ly/3POIuS7 @heatherpaterson.co.uk @matthewhodson.bsky.social

The Government’s plan to prorogue Parliament in the week of 27 April risks ending this session without delivering the promised draft bill to ban conversion practices. If that happens, it is a clear failure to meet a manifesto commitment. www.linkedin.com/posts/sabaal... @heatherpaterson.co.uk

As Interim Chair of Ban Conversion Practices Coalition I’m concerned a parenting book promoting “desistance” appears in 58 UK libraries. This is not evidence-based care; it draws from harmful conversion practices. Young people deserve dignity and support, not shame. We need a fully inclusive ban now

This is now the 8th Xmas since the UK Government committed to banning #LGBTQ+ conversion practices. I’m one of many calling on the Government to publish a draft Bill before the end of this Parliamentary session, as promised. Another year of delay is another year of preventable harm and suffering.

Will you give the LGBTQ+ community the gift of safety and acceptance by finally making harmful conversion practices illegal?

The police will have the power to make it a criminal offence to cover your face at a public protest if Labour’s proposed policing bill becomes law, putting LGBTQIA+ people attending Pride events in danger of being outed

New police powers could criminalise wearing a mask at Pride

There has been an utter and continual failure to address antisemitism in recent years. I have seen it repeatedly justified. It's vile, and it has led to this. Solidarity today on Yom Kippur with my Jewish friends, and the wider community.

Reminder that a) the tests they want to use are not effective at measuring sporting advantage b) the tests are not actually reliable enough at testing karyotype either c) sex testing has been long understood to enable human rights abuses

Rising despite fatigue, moving forward amid doubt; endurance when desire fades is the mark of those who prevail.

The image depicts a minimalistic and abstract landscape with a lone figure walking uphill along a winding path. The background consists of soft, earthy tones—beige, light brown, and muted gray—creating a calm and serene atmosphere. A large, pale sun or moon is positioned behind the hill, casting gentle light over the scene. The figure appears small but determined, symbolizing perseverance and endurance as they progress along the challenging path. The overall simplicity and smooth gradients emphasize resilience and quiet strength in the face of obstacles.

"We can always tell"

Unhappy feat as zoo misgenders penguin for eight years
The Daily Telegraph4 Dec 2024By Tim Sigsworth

A FEMALE king penguin in Britain’s only breeding colony for the species is actually a male, keepers have discovered after eight years.

The true sex of Maggie, now renamed Magnus, was uncovered after staff at Birdland Park and Gardens in Bourton-on-the-water, Glos, saw the bird attempt to mate with a male penguin.
