The Government’s landmark international LGBT+ conference, due to take place in June, has been cancelled, the PA news agency understands.

The move comes after Iain Anderson, the UK’s LGBT+ business champion, resigned earlier on Tuesday over the Government’s “profoundly shocking” position on banning conversion therapy for transgender people.

He is the latest in a series of high-profile individuals and groups to hit out at the Government, with at least 100 organisations pulling out of the Safe To Be Me conference, planned to take place in London from June 29.

More than 80 LGBT+ groups and over 20 HIV groups said they would not take part in the global, UK-hosted conference unless Boris Johnson would revert to his promise for a trans-inclusive ban on conversion therapy.

Reacting to the event’s cancellation, Conservative MP Dehenna Davison tweeted: “We had such a huge opportunity to prove the UK (and the Conservative Party) is a defender of freedom.

“As a Conservative member of the LGBT+ community, it is so wrong it has come to this.”
