Leading companies – including Disney, Microsoft, Google and 133 others – have told the UK government to ‘make progress for the trans community’.
Meanwhile 70 of the organizations have written directly to Prime Minister Boris Johnson telling him to protect trans rights and reform the Gender Recognition Act (GRA).
It comes just two days after big crowds held a Trans Pride protest in London. Reform of the GRA was a central request at the event on Saturday (12 September).
Trans activists have been worrying for months about Britain’s future direction on their rights. New equalities minister Liz Truss stirred the fears when she made her first remarks about her agenda.
