Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has been warned that his proposal for a 'trans-inclusive' ban on conversion therapy could potentially criminalize parents who do not support their children's decision to transition. Labour’s plan has raised concerns about 'risk criminalising' parents. A cross-party group of MPs, peers, psychiatrists, psychologists, doctors, and consultants have expressed 'grave concerns' about the potential implications of this policy. Over 140 prominent signatories from various professions and political backgrounds have written to Sir Keir Starmer, urging him to reconsider moving forward with the proposed ban.
