<p>It is important we use the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia
to remember the countless LGBT people who faced persecution during the Holocaust.</p><p>
</p><p>The Government, with cross-party support, has committed to build a new national
Memorial to the Holocaust with a Learning Centre, alongside the Houses of Parliament.
The Memorial will stand as a reminder to all in Parliament, and the whole nation,
of our responsibility to remain vigilant against all forms of intolerance and bigotry.</p><p>
</p><p>Recognising their suffering and the injustices LGBT people continue to face
should, of course, not simply be about gestures; it must translate into action. That
is why the Government set out commitments in the LGBT Action Plan to promote the representation
of LGBT people in public life.</p>
