Homophobia is Gay!

On Monday the LUU Liberal Democrats and Leeds LDYS launched our campaign to stop homophobic bullying. Ed Davey MP came to Leeds Uni to help with the launch. After a well-attended Q&A in the Old Bar, Ed as well as members of Leeds LDYS launched the campaign with a photo on the Parkinson steps.

Over the next few months a number of events will be going on around the university to do with the campaign. After giving out over 2000 "homophobia is gay" badges during freshers week and having many more signatures for our petition the campaign has got off to a great start. With an article, opinion peice and editorial in Leeds Student today this campaign has really captured students imagination and will hopefully lead to something being achieved on this issue.

Look out for us on campus over the next few months.

STOP HOMOPHOBIC BULLYING NOW!
