A petition to the Prime Minister to introduce specific homophobia and transphobia hate crime legislation

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk:80/LGBT-Hate-Crime/

In remembering the 40th anniversary of the Decriminalisation of Homosexuality and those who have been murdered and had their lives destroyed by homophobia, including David Morley and Jodi Dubrowski, we the undersigned urge the Prime Minister to introduce specific homophobia and transphobia hate crime legislation. We believe that the law should be re-written now to target incitement of hatred on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity.
