Chatting with the Chief of the Air Staff at the MoD reception in Thames Pavilion marking 25 years since the LGBT Ban was lifted.
A pleasure to share the evening with @raf_lgbtq_network and the other service networks (not shown)
25 years ago today was the last day LGBT personnel were banned from the UK military
Tomorrow, celebrate the lifting of that ban
Today, remember the lives it changed
