Yesterday, the RAF held a LGBT Restorative Action Ceremony to honour & recognise LGBT veterans affected by the historic ban of LGBT people in the UK armed forces.
Veterans were recognised for their service & received an apology for past injustices.

I’m quite amazed at how many gender, sex, sports governing body and legal experts there are on here this week…..
I never realised so much SME knowledge was out there - OH WAIT.
Hint people, if you don’t 100% know what you are talking about… maybe don’t guess!
Please please - stop sharing that letter - and if you have with good intentions yesterday , please now remove the tweet. It’s still circulating and it will cause more harm.
Obviously Social Media is impossible to control, but we can all do our bit.
