Tories. 4/4
Yes, it goes on like this.
The government isn't creating a hostile environment. It's *created* one. The Conservatives are not allies and they never have been, no matter which token politician they bring forward to suggest otherwise.
They are rotten to the core.

And let's not forget this hostile environment has left the leading opposition party too much of a coward to remove a very vocal transphobe from their ranks. Let's also not pretend transphobia wasn't an issue in the party under Corbyn either.

The SNP have their own transphobia issues, the DUP still exist, and the Lib Dem's still have Farron who wants to defend Rowling, and a leader whose leadership campaign material omitted LGBTQ references for political gain.
The whole stage has failed us. Tories most of all.

And as expected, a complete non-answer from the aforementioned homophobic bully of a PM.
The hostile environment isn't being created. It's already here. The UK has a leader who facilitated it, and now has only empty words for LGBTQ people.
