Pride in Labour is a grassroots movement within the Labour Party, founded in July 2024.[1]
In July 2024, Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced[2] that the government will uphold the ban on the private prescription of puberty blockers put in place by the previous Conservative government[3] . LGBT+ Labour released a statement[4] which did not explicitly call for the ban to be lifted, which led to Pride in Labour being formed out of frustration at the lack of accountability of the Labour Party on this decision.
Pride in Labour was officially formed on the 14th of July 2024 and went on to elect its first Executive Committee on the 28th of July 2024.
