Stop the D.F.E from passing anti-trans laws, in breach of the Equality Act 2010

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Stop the Government, mainly the Department for Education from passing laws against the transgender/non-binary community. This is in breach of the Equality Act 2010.

The Equality Act 2010 Section 7
(2) A reference to a transsexual person is a reference to a person who has the PROTECTED characteristic of gender reassignment.

(3) In relation to the PROTECTED characteristic of gender reassignment—
(a/b) a reference to a person(a) who has/share a particular PROTECTED characteristic(s) is a reference to a transsexual person

These are people you are meant to protect amongst others including Age.
You are breaking legislation and it needs to be changed.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We understand that you're concerned about the Government's approach to transgender people, but we're not sure exactly what laws you're concerned about.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
