Milestones

Given that the ban is included in the King's speech I call on the government to publish the bill and give it its first reading before Xmas recess.

The P.M. made a commitment to the LGBTQ community 3 years ago to ban conversion therapy...the party has been in power for over a year yet we feel nothing has been done. I call on the government, and Parliament to expedite this bill before more kids and young adults are traumatised and abused. I urge the Government to end this cruel and archaic practice and consign it to the realm of history
