“Rishi Sunak has apologised for the historical treatment of LGBT veterans who were sacked or forced out of the military for being gay.
The PM called the ban an “appalling failure” of the British state.
It was illegal to be gay in the British military until 2000 – with thousands of veterans thought to be affected.
A report into their treatment recommended they be given a financial reward and that the PM publicly apologise.
Addressing MPs, the prime minister said: “Many endured the most horrific sexual abuse and violence, homophobic bullying and harassment all while bravely serving this country.””
