The MI6 headquarters in Vauxhall Cross, London, was seen flying the transgender flag for the first time in a move to promote LGBTQ+ inclusivity in the secret service.
MI6 head Richard Moore displayed the flag to mark the Trans Day of Visibility (March 31), and tweeted a message of support for the trans community to commemorate the occasion: “We’re proud of our trans and non-binary colleagues and committed to providing an inclusive workplace where you can be your true self.”Moore said that “diversity makes us more effective, inclusion makes us stronger”, and hopes more LGBTQ+ people will be encouraged to join MI6.
