Anna McMorrin’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT Party Research

Very strongly agree

Yes, it is a harmful, pseudoscientific practice that amounts to torture

Labour figures and allied LGBT+ groups have described conversion therapy as harmful and abusive; Labour’s policy framing emphasises protecting LGBT+ people from coercive, damaging practices, aligning strongly with this characterization.

Very strongly agree

Yes

Labour has repeatedly backed a statutory ban on conversion therapy; the party’s 2019 and 2024 general election manifestos committed to banning conversion practices, and Labour MPs have generally supported related motions and legislation.

Disagree

Yes, but include exemptions to protect religious freedom and private prayer

Labour supports a ban and has tended to oppose broad ‘religious freedom’ carve-outs that could undermine protections; while Labour may consider narrow safeguards for legitimate pastoral care, it generally resists exemptions that create loopholes.

Strongly disagree

No, consenting adults should be free to seek whatever counseling they choose

Labour’s position prioritises preventing harm and coercion and supports legal prohibition rather than treating it as a consumer choice for adults; the party has backed comprehensive bans that cover adults as well as minors.

Very strongly disagree

No

A blanket refusal to ban conversion therapy conflicts with Labour’s manifesto commitments and long-standing LGBT+ equality platform; Labour has criticised delays/weakness in government action on this issue.

Very strongly disagree

No, this is government overreach that criminalizes private conversations and parental guidance

Labour does not frame a ban as illegitimate ‘government overreach’; instead it frames conversion therapy as harmful abuse requiring legal protection, and it has criticised arguments that bans merely criminalise ordinary conversation or parenting.
