P*nk News seem to be the only ones covering it otherwise I'd have shared a different link. I was surprised that there weren't more questions about eg fertility options for lesbian couples on the NHS ..

Good grief, the stupidity of some of the replies on the twitter thread - if TRA activism wasn't stamping all over LGB needs and rights the LGB Alliance wouldn't have been needed in the first place. Of course the questions are about the interests of LGB people which are under threat - are they supposed to pretend the threat doesn't come from trans ideology? The whole 'you say you're not a hate a group and this is ALL about trans stuff' is disingenuous to the point of being ridiculous.

Good questions, thank you for sharing. I'll be forwarding the list to my MP.

Am I alone in wishing that the LGB Alliance was a political party? I feel utterly disenfranchised right now.

Fascinating. The title of the piece is "The ‘LGB Alliance’ has 12 questions for potential MPs and none of them are about lesbian, bi or gay issues" and yet the LGB Alliance twitter thread pretty much contains references to L,G,B or rights to same sex orientation in almost every tweet.
It really is a 'How many fingers am I holding up, Winston' situation.

Also disenfranchised. Spoiling my ballot and feel totally depressed about it.
