Transphobic hate rises in England and Wales as Conservatives continue to spread anti-trans ideology
The Prime Minister is standing by the transphobic rhetoric made at the Conservative Party conference, whilst a new Home Office statistical bulletin shows a concerning rise in transphobic hate.
Rishi Sunak has continued to double down on his transphobic rhetoric, despite stoic backlash from LGBTQIA+ organisations, individuals and their allies.
The comments made are presented amidst new hate crime statistics being revealed that show England and Wales continues to become less safe for LGBTQIA+ people.
In Sunak’s closing keynote speech at the Conservative Party conference on Wednesday (4 October), he addressed the audience and said: “It shouldn’t be controversial for parents to know what their children are being taught in schools about relationships. “Patients should know when the hospitals are talking about men or women.
