Really fascinating update from fellow #VAPC member Craig Jones MBE about Fighting With Pride. LGBT+ Veterans are lucky to have such a passionate campaigner who will fight to right the wrongs of the ban on LGBT+ personnel serving in the Armed Forces prior to 2000 #fwp

The conference also saw the launch of a new report led by Dr Gill McGill and Dr Alison Osborne from Northern Hub for Military Research, commissioned by Fighting With Pride. The report details initial findings to provide an evidence-base for the development of support for the #LGBTVeterans community. 🧵4/4

After a busy day of national and regional media for our team and veterans, Im back in Parliament this evening rallying support to get fair compensation delivered. It’s time for the Government to get around the table - now!

'They sent me to prison for 6 months... I left with no references, no money, nothing.' Ex-RAF officer Steve Purves was jailed for 6 months over his relationship with a male colleague. Homosexuality was decriminalised in the UK in 1967 but a ban continued in the armed forces

LGBT veterans awarded a special badge to mark the injustice they faced say they will refuse to wear it until the government pays them compensation.
