A new survey was launched this week on the official House of Commons Twitter account asking: “Should it be made illegal?
What would that mean to you?” A citizen petition has been running on the UK Government and Parliament website calling for a legal ban on ‘conversion therapy’ and has gathered over 185,000 signatures at the time of writing.
It is currently the No.1 most popular on the site. In response, the House of Commons decided to issue a survey asking if the dangerous practice of ‘conversion therapy’ should be made illegal, when we all already know what the answer to that question is.
The reaction to the survey and tweet was overwhelmingly negative, and the House of Commons Twitter account was forced to delete the post.
