Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat), on Friday, 16 January 2015, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 21 members in total.
LGBT RIGHTS IN RUSSIA
That this House welcomes recent media reports that Russian officials have stated that their government will not unfairly prohibit transgender citizens from operating vehicles based purely on their self-defined gender identity; urges the Russian government to stay true to its word and continue to ensure that the transgender community is not excluded from driving due to characteristics that are completely unrelated to the ability to safely operate vehicles; and calls on the Russian government to end the restriction of freedoms and persecution of the LGBTQ community and instead work towards ensuring that all Russian citizens are given fair opportunities in all sectors of society.
