Brexit leaves LGBTQ Brits at risk of having rights cut back

If LGBTQ people think their gender identity or sexuality has little to do with what they stand to lose in the Brexit process, a new report from GayStarNews will make worrying reading.

Gay Star News commissioned the report – Brexit: LGBTI Impact Assessment – from leading experts in LGBTQ human rights law.

It seemed clear to us that nobody in the UK Government was focused on LGBTQ people in this process, so we needed to look out for our community.

The report explains in detail how our membership of the EU has driven forward LGBTQ rights in the UK. For example, before the EU intervened, employers could sack lesbian, gay and bi staff with impunity.
