LGBT veterans have 100 days left to claim compensation
Veterans impacted by the historic prohibition against LGBT individuals serving in the armed forces are able to seek financial recognition, with applications closing on December 12. The government's scheme offers £50,000 for those discharged due to the ban, plus up to £20,000 for other harms like harassment. Defence Secretary Wes Streeting urged all eligible veterans to come forward and spread the word.
