Default Fast U -Turn: The Government is now banning Gay conversion therapy

[Plans to ban conversion therapy dropped
just a day after minister said
government 'wholly committed' to new law]

Thursday, a government spokesman told
Sky News that ministers will instead review
how existing law can be used more effectively
to prevent the practice,
which is outlawed in several other countries.

He said: "Having explored this sensitive
issue in great depth the government has
decided to proceed by reviewing how existing
law can be deployed more effectively to
prevent this in the quickest way possible,
and explore the use of other
non-legislative measures."

The U-turn comes just a day after
equalities minister Mike Freer told MPs the
government was "wholly committed" to
legislating to ban conversion therapy.]

As long as it remains optional, let people throw their money away on crap. People can buy magic oils or prayer rugs, so why not a cure for teh gheys?

They’ve said they’re going to consider how existing law can be changed, which is far easier than having to create a bill, pass it through the commons, then through the lords, then through the Queen. Misleading title as usual.

[Government backtracks on U-turn
over conversion therapy ban
Theresa May had initially promised in 2018 the practice,
which attempts to change an individual's
sexual orientation or gender identity,
would be outlawed - and her successor
Boris Johnson also said it would be.]
