Stop Dithering Support the Peter Tatchell Foundation campaign to ban LGBT+ conversion therapy NOW! Will Boris Listen To Stephen Fry?
Stephen Fry has urged Boris Johnson to ban conversion therapy, calling the harmful practice “cruel” and “contemptuous”.
Boris does not seem to be listening to many people, including our MP for Rutland and Melton Alicia Kearns
Writing for The House magazine, Alicia Kearns, MP for Rutland and Melton, said the “fraudulent and abhorrent practice” must be criminalised, as existing laws do not enable prosecution where no physical harm has been caused.
She said any attempt to stop someone from expressing their chosen gender identity or sexual orientation is ‘conversion therapy’, which she said “can range from ‘therapy’ and prayer sessions, to aversive treatments like electroshocks or even ‘corrective’ rape”.

Please Support the Peter Tatchell Foundation campaign to ban LGBT+ conversion therapy NOW!
On 3 July 2018, the UK government promised to ban the ineffective and harmful practice of LGBT+ conversion therapy. We have endured over two and half years of dithering with no ban in sight. Countless numbers of LGBT’s have been subjected to this mental torture.
Please sign the petition. Tell the UK government to #StopDithering.
