Conservative leadership candidates have set out their views, policies, and plans for LGBT rights.  We asked each of the candidates to talk about their record, and what they intend to be their focus if they become the next Conservative Party leader and Prime Minister.

It’s Birmingham Pride tomorrow and we shall be parading and celebrating it. We are joined by Andy Street, the Mayor for the West Midlands.

Come join us and the mayor tomorrow and celebrate pride. Here’s why:

The first Birmingham Gay Pride Weekend took place on 1972, one week after the first London Gay Pride Week, itself the first Gay Pride Rally to take place outside the United States.

Prospective Mayor of London, Shaun Bailey, shares what the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia means to him.

Rebecca Harris MP shares what the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia means to her.

The rights the LGBTIQ community have won over the past half a century are thus much more than the legal protections and securing equal status in society. It is about the cultural aspects too like making it normal for LGBTIQ couples to not face abuse or discrimination.

It's a little frustrating that in 2019 we are increasingly being asked what the purpose of pride events is, why organisations like LGBT+ Conservatives are still needed, and what rights LGBT+ people are still seeking to gain.
