National Trust members are set to vote on whether or not the charity should ban “unaccountable, divisive and virtue signalling” Pride events.
The charity and membership organisation, which is responsible for the likes of Speke Hall, The Hardman’s House and The Beatles’ childhood homes, are hosting their Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Wednesday, November 5. This year members are being asked to vote on a resolution which is calling for the National Trust's participation in Pride events to be banned.
The resolution reads: “Be it resolved that this AGM deplores participation by the National Trust in gay pride parades as divisive and an unaccountable waste of members’ subscriptions.”
