A National day of action calling on public bodies to #ComeOutOfStonewall

This is a protest led by gays, bisexuals, lesbians and women. We call on all institutions who are still members of their diversity scheme to #LeaveStonewalll.

• They are misleading private and governmental organisations about the Equality Act.

• They are pushing policies which discriminate against women and harm lesbian, gay, bisexual and autistic children

• Their #NoDebate tactics are anti-democratic and have had a 'chilling effect' on freedom of speech

• They are promoting a world view which is anti-science and denies the basics of human biology.

This event is open to all, but we especially welcome the participation of women, lesbians, gays and bisexuals. If you would like to make a sign or prepare a speech please do. Dinosaurs also welcome!

Events are happening throughout the UK, in London and elsewhere.

London: Meet up: 12pm at the Millicent Fawcett statue in Parliament Square.

Edinburgh: Meet up: 1.30 at Waverley Gate, 2-4 Waterloo Place.

Belfast: Meet up: 3.45 at BBC Broadcasting House,

If you are unable to attend the protest, you can take action from your sofa.
