Tackling Homophobia

That this House congratulates the organisers of the London Europride festival; applauds the success of this event; recognises the huge contribution gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities make to the rich diversity of London and of Europe; calls for homophobic bullying to be stamped out in schools; further calls on school staff to challenge immediately homophobic taunts and name-calling in schools; urges that schools be required to include measures that deal with homophobic bullying in their anti-bullying policies; and strongly suggests that at least one teacher in each school undergo training which includes how to tackle homophobic bullying.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs.
