Today is 20 years since @UKLabour repealed Section 28 in England and Wales.

Our patron, @angelaeagle, reflects on the progress made in the fight for LGBT+ rights, and the long journey still ahead.

This is a mess - and will cause real harm to trans people.

Trans exclusion, whether in healthcare or other spaces, is an indignity.

We will always stand against it 🏳️‍⚧️✊

Our congratulations to @andyburnham on his appointment as Prime Minister — and to our patron @angelaeagle, who becomes the first out lesbian to serve in a Labour cabinet.

We look forward to working with this new administration to deliver for LGBT+ people across the UK.

[Joe Dharampal-Hornby @Joe_DH]

Alongside @LGBTLabour patron @RachelTaylorMP, I’ve written for @LabourList to welcome the proposed ban on conversion practices.

We look forward to working with all MPs to ensure LGBT+ people are finally protected from such heinous and abusive practices.

Our thanks, especially, to our patrons @NiaGriffithMP and @oliviabaileymp, whose tireless work has been instrumental to delivering on this manifesto commitment.

[LGBT+ Labour @LGBTLabour]

We welcome yesterday's decision by the Government to share a draft bill to ban conversion practices with Parliament.

Eight years after a Conservative Government first promised to change the law, it is Labour taking action to deliver a full, trans-inclusive ban.

Our message for Trans Day of Visibility, 2026:

[LGBT+ Labour @LGBTLabour]

A statement from the LGBT+ Labour National Committee following the announcement of a pause on the Puberty Blockers Trial:

[Rachel Taylor MP @RachelTaylorMP]

1/ My thoughts on the puberty blockers trial — and why we need urgent action on trans healthcare. 🧵

https://t.co/ejMBZTC1pc

[LGBT+ Labour @LGBTLabour]

9/ More broadly, we urgently need to build a conversation in this country that supports the basic rights of trans people to access medicine and live with dignity and respect.

[LGBT+ Labour @LGBTLabour]

1/ We welcome @wesstreeting’s announcement of a clinical trial into the efficacy and safety of puberty blockers for treating children with gender dysphoria. This serves as a vital step towards providing young trans people with good, timely, and evidence-led healthcare.

[LGBT+ Labour @LGBTLabour]

8/ and provide mental health support for those who desperately need it, as well as delivering a comprehensive, trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices.
