The Charity Commission, which registers and regulate charities in England and Wales, confirmed that the organisation has been approved onto the register as their purposes fall within the legal definition of charity.
According to Gov, there were “a number of objections to the registration of LGBA as a charity” that the Commission took into careful consideration, including a petition that has garnered over 35,000 signatures.
However, the Commission later said that a charity “can promote the rights of one or more specific groups, but may not do so whilst demeaning the rights of others, including on social media,” which makes no sense at all.
