On January 28th, the EHRC released two statements which impede on LGBT+ rights, with specific aim at the Trans Community. The two statements; on on conversion therapy and the other on the Gender recognition act are a clear attack on trans rights.  Many Trans and LGBT+ organisations and community groups have voiced their concerns about the statements and the behaviour of the EHRC.  Leading organisations such as stonewall have written open letters to to the Prime Minister and others asking them to "Stand up for trans rights'. The LGBT Foundation has made the decision to severe ties with the EHRC.  In a letter, the charity said : “These statements are extremely damaging and cannot be supported in any circumstances. EHRC has ignored the experiences of trans and non-binary individuals who have undergone unnecessary trauma".
