What the petition asks

2017 marked 50 year anniversary for decriminalization of homosexuality- all we got were apologies (some posthumously).
2018 marked 30 years since Section 28 Education clause was removed-again apology but couched with "it was protecting children". Now there are debates about trans issues and the Gender Recognition Act.
