Rishi Sunak is expected to be told to say sorry on behalf of successive British governments to gay veterans booted out of the forces over their sexuality.
A copy of a landmark report recommends the Prime Minister issue an apology to thousands of troops kicked out for being gay. The study is said to include accounts of troops being given electric-shock conversion therapy and intrusive medical examinations amid witch hunts of people suspected of being gay.
It suggests the troops should be compensated for loss of earnings and for the suffering they went through. It is also said to recommend the heads of the Army, Royal Navy and RAF write individual letters of apology to gay veterans who suffered under the ban.
