The BBC plans to further promote LGBT culture on-screen and within the organisation, in order to avoid a “heteronormative culture”.
People’s LGBT identities will be shown more often, regardless of its relevance to a story line or news item.
The corporation is also encouraging all staff to use non-binary pronouns when speaking to or about someone who identifies as neither male nor female.
Taking offence
The new policy emerged from a review of career progression and culture for LGBT employees at the BBC, which included “unconscious bias training” so that staff do not accidentally offend colleagues. Of the ten recommendations, all were accepted by the broadcaster.
LGBT staff will be encouraged to “bring their whole self to work”, while some heterosexual colleagues who “actively promote” LGBT issues will be designated “straight allies”.

Not sure how BBC can promote such issues as priority when they are 'immoral' with Jeremy vines wages,
but this is the propaganda being forced onto agendas.
Little debate but feel that is the case people giving in,without margins of debate,discussion,and chatting.
Currant place of Worship stifles debate around theology.
So bad theology damages people,loudness wins.
Abrupt statements get accepted Israel issue in our church is clear.
"We need to be praying for Israel, the bible tells us too".
Several people speak out . . . .it gets voted on,and a passage that wrongly interpreted is accepted as correct!
What's wrong with debate ?
Why are we frightened to Question the Bible?
Big issue not getting proper talk time because shout aloud's are winning . . . .the quiet reflective debate NOT taking place
