Recognise non-binary people legally

What the petition asks
We would like those who identify as non-binary, genderqueer, gender non conforming, or any other similar identity to be recognised in the eyes of British law.
Recognising us legally means that the discrimination against non binary individuals will be reduced, as anti-discriminatory laws can be enforced to prosecute people illegally targeting us- this will also act as a deterrent for other people who discriminate on the grounds of gender identity and expression.
