The government's historic LGBT+ conference has been cancelled.


























According to reports, the Government's historic international LGBT+ conference, scheduled for June, has been cancelled.

The cancellation comes after Iain Anderson, the UK's LGBT+ business champion, resigned earlier on Tuesday in protest of the Government's "profoundly shocking" stance on conversion therapy, which could exclude trans people from an eventual ban.

Mr Anderson is the latest in a long line of high-profile individuals and organisations to criticise the government, with at least 100 organisations boycotting the Safe To Be Me conference.

It was scheduled to begin on June 29 in London.

More than 80 LGBT+ organisations and over 20 HIV organisations have pledged to boycott the global conference unless Boris Johnson keeps his promise of a trans-inclusive ban on conversion therapy.
