Baroness Meyer: ...have been allowed to disseminate inappropriate teaching materials to promote their belief that gender identity is a fact.

Church Commissioners: Same-sex Relationships: General Synod Decisions ( 9 Mar 2023)

Ben Bradshaw: ...from their dioceses in protest at these very small steps forward. Is it not increasingly clear that a small minority in the Church of England will never be reconciled with treating lesbian and gay people equally, and it would be better to let those people go, so that the Church can focus on the majority of Anglicans in this country who support treating lesbian and gay people equally?

Illegal Migration Bill ( 7 Mar 2023)

Luke Pollard: ...they be deported to Rwanda, where the FCO’s travel advice says: “LGBT individuals…experience discrimination and abuse, including from local authorities”? Can the Home Secretary reassure a gay MP here like myself that we are not turning our back on LGBT asylum seekers who are fleeing appalling abuse simply for being themselves?

Written Answers — Ministry of Defence: Armed Forces: Homosexuality (28 Feb 2023)

Andrew Murrison: Almost all police investigative records concerning gay and lesbian personnel before 2000 have been destroyed. Service Police investigative records are routinely and lawfully destroyed, in line with data protection legislation and Ministry of Defence (MOD) policy prescribing retention periods based on category of offence.

Overseas Aid: Child Health and Education (22 Feb 2023)

David Mundell: I think our Government have a very good record on championing LGBT rights internationally. The most significant thing, as the APPG has recognised, is decriminalisation. The criminalisation of gay sex with men, and of sex workers, is the single biggest impediment to people getting the support that they need. I think this Government are taking forward as many measures as they can, but we have...

Performance-enhancing Drugs and Body Image — [David Mundell in the Chair] (21 Feb 2023)

Luke Evans: ...s muscles are not big enough, no matter how much they eat or train. It is important to understand that this is a growing epidemic in our country; even more importantly, it is quite prolific in the gay community. I will break the issue down into three sections.

Testing options in the United Kingdom vary across Administrations. We are leading the...

3. Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership: The LGBTQ+ Action Plan ( 7 Feb 2023)

Mike Hedges: .... I fully support the vision to improves the lives and outcomes for LGBTQ+ people. I remember section 28. When I was teaching in a college, a student told me that he could bully someone who was gay and, if I tried to stop him, he would report me and get me sacked. I explained that I would always do the right thing, no matter what. We have come a long way from those days. I am disappointed...

LGBT History Month ( 2 Feb 2023)

Stuart Andrew: ...nurses, teaching in our schools or working in any other workplace. In fact, when I first stood for election to this House, it was noticeable that people were more interested not in the fact I am gay but in the fact that my partner works for Marks & Spencer and I can get a 20% discount. We should also be proud that this Parliament has the most LGBT parliamentarians, or did until recently,...

Business of the House ( 2 Feb 2023)

Chris Bryant: The position of the Church of England bishops on same-sex marriage is causing very real “pain and trauma” to many gay Christians. I hope the bishops will back reform in the end, “allowing parishes and clergy to conduct weddings for same sex couples”. I know the Leader of the House agrees, because I am quoting her words from her letter to her local bishop, for which I commend her. I...

Holocaust Memorial Day (26 Jan 2023)

Christian Wakeford: ..., and dentists and doctors carrying out evil selections. Those who were persecuted were ordinary people too, whether Jews, Soviet civilians and prisoners of war, disabled people, Romani people, gays or many, many others. Like us, they all had families, hopes and dreams, and a want and need to get on in life, find opportunities, be happy, and to give and feel love. They wanted to read and...

Scottish Parliament: Holocaust Memorial Day 2023 (26 Jan 2023)

Fergus Ewing: ...the abandonment and disregard of human rights, with people being punished for who they are or for what their identity is. People are punished for being Jewish, or disabled, or Sinti, or Roma, or gay. It starts in that way, but it ends up in the gas chambers because ordinary people have allowed or enabled it or, in fact, helped to carry it out. I want to use my remarks today to remember one...
