Update on the APPG LGBT+ during the General Election 2019

The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Global LGBT+ Rights - as all other APPGs - does not exist while Parliament is dissolved ahead of the General Election. During this time there are no MPs and thus no All-Party Parliamentary Groups.

Therefore as soon as Parliament is dissolved tonight, the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Global LGBT+ Rights will have no status as an APPG.

Parliamentary rules prohibit APPGs from making public comment, holding events, campaigning, undertaking research, issuing communications, or allowing others to do so in their name during a General Election.

The APPG is therefore not able to reply to public correspondence or media inquiries during this time.

During the General Election campaign this website or any of the APPG’s social media will not be updated.

It is expected that newly elected parliamentary supporters of LGBT+ rights globally will seek to re-form this APPG to champion LGBT+ rights in the new parliament.

We will update you again after the General Election.
