Resolution to Stop Conversion Practices Passes in Europe

Council of Europe approved resolution to ban conversion practices with 71-26-2.
Kate Osborne, Labour MP, tabled resolution in January to counter harm from conversion practices.
Conversion practices are abusive and linked to depression, PTSD, higher suicide risks.
The Trevor Project found survivors more than twice as likely to attempt suicide.
Supporters urge UK to follow Council's lead on banning conversion therapy.
Opponents argue the move risks intruding into medicine, education, and freedom of thought.
