Core Issues Trust

Mike Davidson Core Issues Trust, a Christian charity which offers therapeutic support for men and women dealing with unwanted same-sex attraction, was prohibited by the Mayor of London from running adverts on London buses reading “Not gay! Ex-Gay, Post-Gay and Proud. Get over it!”. The adverts were in response to those run by homosexual lobby group Stonewall, saying: “Some people are gay. Get over it!” The Trust had their adverts approved by the advertising authorities, but following a leak to the Guardian newspaper, Boris Johnson personally intervened to stop them from being displayed just hours before they were due to become public.
