More on Stonewall
Description from Wikipedia:
Stonewall is a gay rights campaign organisation in the United Kingdom named after the Stonewall Inn of Stonewall riots fame. It was formed in 1989 by Labour Party activists and others lobbying against section 28 of the Local Government Act. Sir Ian McKellen and Michael Cashman were among founders. Stonewall GB is based in London. Stonewall Scotland has offices in Edinburgh and Stonewall Cymru is in Cardiff and Bangor.
Although Stonewall was a lobbying organisation rather than membership organisation, it has diversified into policy development for the rights of lesbian, gay and bisexual people since Labour came to power.
