Stonewall have emailed out to the supporters to say "It's been five years since the UK Government first promised to ban so-called ‘conversion therapy’. During this time, we estimate thousands of LGBTQ+ people in the UK have suffered due to these harmful attempts to ‘cure’ us.The time for a clear and concrete timetable from the UK Government is now. No more delays. No more loopholes. Time is running out. We’re calling on the UK Government to publish the draft Bill immediately and bring forward the final Bill by the King’s Speech in November". But it’s still not clear whether the UK Government’s plans will fully protect us. In order to ensure the ban is workable and effective, the Bill must not contain loopholes that would enable abuse to continue, whether it be not covering people pressured into ‘consenting’, or any other carve-outs".
