The Labour Party is to set up the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender (LGBT) section.

During a meeting with the international lesbian and gay association and the Rainbow Rose, Labour Leader Joseph Muscat said that it is high time to stop being hypocritical with this section of society.

The Labour Party is the first political party in Malta to have a LGBT section. The LGBT section is also expected to have a representative in the PL General Conference.

“We believe that it is high time to take concrete action on gay rights,” Joseph Muscat said.

Labour MP Gino Cauchi, spokesperson for civil society and civil rights for minorities and the FLZ LGBT attended the meeting.
