Over 70% have suffered homophobic attacks
By Ruth Lumley

More than 70 per cent of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people have experienced hate crime during the past five years.

The statistic was revealed in a study of Brighton and Hove's LGBT community, called Count Me In Too.

It revealed that of the 73 per cent of those who had experienced hate crime, only a quarter reported it.
