Petition: Urge the UK to Expunge the Records of LGBTQ+ People Convicted of Homophobic Laws

Since 2012, only British men were allowed to apply to remove convictions of “being gay” on their records. Now women are allowed to apply too, but some individuals may not be aware of this legal change, the bureaucratic process involved can be very tedious, and many individuals have even had their applications rejected. Please sign this petition to urge the UK to expunge all these records immediately!
