desperanceI don't tend to post political, I'd generally rather talk about cats or confit or, hell, even writing if I have to - but, as ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
badbookworm observes, Theresa May's appointment as Equality Minister is a joke, when you look at her voting record.
She has voted:
- against repealing section 28
- against lowering the age of consent in homosexual relationships to 16
- against gay adoption rights
- against the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill, which would give lesbian couples the right to receive fertility treatment
She also refused to attend the vote on the Gender Recognition Act to allow transsexuals to change their legal gender.
This is the internet; of course there's a petition. You will find it here. 10,250 signatures at time of posting. Wanna make it more?
