Ms Dugdale, In your recent statement with Stonewall

Ms Dugdale,

In your recent statement with Stonewall, you focus specifically on the experiences of trans people, but there is no mention of lesbians, gay men, or bisexual individuals.

Given that Stonewall claims to represent the wider LGBT+ community, it would be helpful to understand why the statement centres solely on trans issues. Do you see the challenges facing trans people as distinct from those affecting other groups within the community, or was there another reason for not referencing lesbians, gay men, and bisexual people in this context?

Clarifying this would help provide a fuller picture of how you view the organisation’s role in representing and advocating for all parts of the LGBT community.

Yours sincerely,

Fantastic Lesbians
