Hold the government accountable for the growing rise of anti-lgbt hate crime.

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

We want to government to apply tighter regulations regarding policies they choose to pass. Throughout recent years the government has continued to pass and affirm policy that aims to erase and attack the existence and basic human rights of lgbt individuals. ("transmisia" = anti-trans hostility)

Statistics from recent years, which are increasing as anti-lgbt attitudes rise.

"In 2020/2021, 2,630 Hate Crimes against transgender people were recorded by the Police, an increase of 16% from the year prior (Home Office, 2021). This number is still severely underreported" // "LGBT Hate Crime reports have 'tripled in the last 3 years and in 2020/2021 over 17,135 LGBT people reported they were the victims of hate crimes to police" (StopTheHateUK.Org)

(SEE: transmisia - anti-trans hostility)
