Labour Women's Declaration have campaigned against reforming the UK's ban on so-called conversion practices calling the proposed bill "unnecessary and unworkable." The lack of a proper ban is mentioned in Amnesty's report.

Black text on white background that says

On 25 June 2026, the government published a draft Conversion Practices Bill, following
years of commitments by successive governments20.

As the proposed ban moves through Parliament, particular attention should be paid to
organisations and service providers that promote conversion practices, including those that
provide training for therapists and counsellors, such as the International Foundation for
Therapeutic and Counselling Choice (IFTCC).

The legislation should ensure that conversion practices cannot be legitimised through claims
of consent or personal choice and should provide clear safeguards against potential loopholes.

In addition, the bill should cover the advertising and promotion of these activities.

Which is funny because ten years ago, in 2016, she was arguing in favour of working to end transphobia across Europe and in 2017 tabled an early day motion calling to expand trans healthcare and IN FAVOUR of amending the Equality Act to include gender identity. edm.parliament.uk/early-day-mo...

Black text on grey background that says 11. According to recent figures published by Transgender Europe, there have been 117 murders of trans and gender-diverse people in Europe since 2008. Will the Minister commit to working with our European partners to end transphobia across our continent? (905122)

[Bold] Motion text

[Normal] That this House agrees that the recommendations of the Women and Equalities Committee report on transgender equality needs to be implemented in full; believes that gender identity includes those who do not identify as either male or female, identify as both, a third gender or are fluid in their identity; notes that long waiting times for gender identity treatment can do harm to patients who should not have to wait longer than the targets for specialist referral; recognises that verbal, physical and sexual assaults towards those with a non-cis gender identity is the highest of all minority hate-crime, with over half of transgender women reporting they have been sexually or physically assaulted; calls on the Government to update the protected characteristic in the Equalities Act 2010 from gender reassignment to gender identity with a statutory code that includes non-binary identities; recommends that specialist GPs should be trained so that they can provide bridging hormones while patients wait to see specialist centres; and further recommends bringing LGBT hate crimes into line with hate crimes based on race and faith by making them aggravated offences.

Mary Glindon signed on today. Last year, she argued in favour of new equalities regulator guidance which excludes trans women from public spaces. hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2025...

Black text on white background that says The Government have recognised that there was confusion or a lack of awareness about the same-sex exceptions in the Equality Act 2010 and how to apply them practice, so does the Minister agree that the updated EHRC statutory code is needed as soon as possible to make it explicitly clear that the Act provides for single-sex services for biological women?

It turns out British MP Tonia Antoniazzi has tabled an early day motion that condemns the Amnesty report depiction of the anti-rights movement in the UK. The motion cites that "gender critical belief" is protected under the Equality Act 2010 as well as last year's supreme court ruling.

Black text on white background which says: [Bold] Motion text [Normal]
That this House expresses extreme concern at Amnesty International UK's report entitled A Growing Threat: the Anti-Rights Movement in the UK, published on 8 July; condemns its depiction and listing of organisations defending the rights of women, girls, children, and gay and bisexual people as anti-rights on the basis of them being gender critical; further condemns its depiction and listing of organisations of parents and of clinicians as promoting conversion practices; notes that organisations depicted as supposedly anti-rights includes many grassroots women’s rights organisations doing vital work domestically and internationally with vulnerable women and children, and a rape crisis centre and support service for female survivors of male violence; further notes that gender critical belief is a protected belief under the Equality Act 2010 and reflects the views of the majority of the public; also notes that it is perfectly legitimate to organise around the protected characteristic of sex and to offer single-sex spaces, as clarified by the recent Supreme Court ruling in For Women Scotland vs The Scottish Government; recognises that such organisation, work and services are fundamentally important; also condemns the report for making unevidenced characterisations; acknowledges the damaging impact of such baseless accusations for the small grassroots charities and organisations listed; and calls on Amnesty International to withdraw the report, issue a formal public correction and apology acknowledging the reputational harm, and pledge that Amnesty staff who hold gender critical beliefs can express such beliefs without fear of bullying or harassment.
