The LGBT Foundation has announced it has severed ties with the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) after it made a number of ‘extremely damaging’ statements.
The Manchester-based charity said the EHRC’s recent statements relating to conversion therapy legislation and reforms to the Gender Recognition Act (GRA) ‘cannot be supported in any circumstances’.
Yesterday (January 26), the EHRC wrote to the Scottish Government to say it was ‘concerned at the polarised debate’ regarding reforms of the GRA, which would enable trans and non-binary people the right to self-identify.
