Yet another betrayal after six years of broken promises by successive Tory governments.
If we win the next general election, The Labour Party will introduce a full, trans-inclusive ban on conversion therapy.

This weekend marks a decade since the UK’s first same sex marriage, which relied on The Labour Party votes to pass.
As Baroness Joyce Gould argues in LabourList, we must continue to campaign for full LGBT+ equality, particularly for Trans people.

We would like to thank all 68 MPs who voted to #BanConversionTherapy .
The majority vote to support ending the abuse of conversion practices confirmed the cross-party political will in Parliament to deliver a ban.

We would especially like to thank Lloyd Russell-Moyle MP Lloyd Russell-Moyle MP🌹🏳️🌈 the Bill's author & sponsor for his incredible hard work.

LGBT+ Labour 1/4
Whilst it was disappointing to see some in the house filibuster and spread harmful conspiracies, we would like to thank all MPs from across the house who joined Lloyd Russell-Moyle MP🌹🏳️🌈 to support his bill to Ban Conversion Therapy.
A cross party effort is key to #BanConversionTherapy
Proud to have been in Parliament on Friday to support Lloyd Russell-Moyle MP🌹🏳️🌈 Bill.
The government should be ashamed of themselves throwing LGBT people under the bus like this. A Labour government would ban all forms of conversion therapy

The Conservatives promised a ban on conversion therapy six years ago. Today they refused to back one.
This is a failure of leadership and a betrayal of the LGBT people at risk of these abusive practices.
