Stonewall to cut staff afer USAID freeze: 'Hard won rights are being rolled back'
Briefly

UK LGBTQ+ charity Stonewall is undergoing significant changes, including potential staff cuts, as it grapples with the ramifications of the Trump administration's foreign aid policy cuts. Reports suggest that Stonewall may reduce its workforce by half following a significant loss of funding from the US, which previously supported its initiatives through the Global Equality Fund. Spokespersons highlight an unprecedented political backlash against inclusion and emphasize the need for the charity to adapt to maintain its mission in this challenging environment.
"Hard won rights are being rolled back for marginalised communities across the world and we are seeing an unprecedented political backlash against the principles of inclusion."
"We are seeing an unprecedented political backlash against the principles of inclusion. Stonewall is adapting to ensure that it is fit for purpose and able to meet the challenges of this new political era."
