Green Party of England and Wales' LGBT Group

Green Party Manifesto for LGBT People

The mission of the national LGBT Green Group (LGBT-G) is to advance lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equality in our society and to raise awareness and understanding of Green and progressive values among LGBT people. LGBT-G aims to build a more sustainable and equal society where everyone is valued as an individual. The diversity within the LGBT community enriches all our lives, and should be encouraged and promoted. We will stand up for what we believe in, regardless of hostile media coverage.

URGENT please help Ask the Prime Minister to stop deporting gays and lesbians to countries where they may be imprisoned, tortured or executed because of their sexuality. Signed the petition
