RMT Council of Executives decision:
We note the item from the LGBT Advisory Committee and we instruct the General Secretary to:
- Support campaigns against anti-gay organisations that fraudulently and harmfully claim they are able to ‘cure’ homosexuality.
- Support and mobilise for appropriate protest actions on this issue to bring the fake business of ‘reparative therapy’ to an end.
- Request the RMT's Parliamentary group of MPs, led by John McDonnell, to raise this issue again in parliament - including the issue of CARE funded interns for MPs and ministers in the coalition government.
- Lobby government to make it an offense to advertise, promote or offer bogus gay ‘cures’.
- Support international campaigns against the ‘ex-gay’ movement and raise the issue with international trade union contacts.
- Campaign under the slogan, “Cure homophobia not homosexuality”.
