Guernsey Election Candidates Offered ‘Rainbow Mark’ to Show Support for LGBTQ+ Community
In Guernsey’s 2025 general election, candidates have the opportunity to display a “Rainbow Mark” on their campaign materials to visibly demonstrate their support for the LGBTQ+ community. This initiative is spearheaded by Liberate, a local charity dedicated to promoting fairness, equality, and inclusion across the Channel Islands.
The Rainbow Mark serves as a public symbol indicating that a candidate is committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment for LGBTQ+ individuals. While the program has been previously adopted by businesses and organizations to showcase their LGBTQ+ friendly stance, its extension to political candidates aims to enhance visibility and encourage inclusive representation in local governance.
Liberate encourages politically engaged LGBTQ+ islanders and allies to participate in the election, emphasizing the importance of representation and the impact of inclusive policies. By adopting the Rainbow Mark, candidates can signal their dedication to these values, potentially influencing voters who prioritize equality and diversity.
For more information on the Rainbow Mark and how to participate, interested candidates can contact Liberate directly through their official website: liberate.gg.
