Stop UK Aid money going to organisations with an anti-LGBTQ agenda

What the petition asks
I want the government to avoid sending UK Aid money to organisations with a virulently anti-LGBTQ agenda, such as some religious groups in Uganda.
I have read that the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda was given UK aid money, and this could have contributed to the extreme laws proposed there.

The UK has come a long way in improving the legal environment for LGBTQ people so it seems an entirely wrong and contradictory use of tax-payers' money to be funding anti-LGBTQ groups overseas.
