Great news! British Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has issued a response to our petition following the Turing family’s delivery of more than half a million signatures to the U.K. government last week. In his response, Clegg writes, “Alan Turing and the thousands of other men should never have been prosecuted. It is utterly wrong that so many people were convicted simply for being who they are. The Liberal Democrats and I will work to make sure those with convictions for consensual homosexual activity between adults are pardoned. It should never have been a crime in the first place.” You can read his full response here: http://chn.ge/1FRVzdE This is an important development because it demonstrates that decision-makers are listening and supporting the campaign. Perhaps other British officials will follow Clegg’s lead and publicly endorse the petition. It is important that politicians be on the record with their support, and are then held accountable for a commitment to making this change for justice. Thank you again for your continued support.
