Rainbow Europe 2013: Map charting the strength of LGBT rights across Europe, published by ILGA Europe today. The map is part of the organisation’s Rainbow Europe package, which reviews the best legal environment for those in the LGBTI community.

The map sees the UK score 77 percent on a checklist of laws that include rules on non-discrimination, gender recognition and hate speech. Next in line is Belgium (67), Sweden, Spain, Portugal (65%) and France with 64 percent.

Bulgaria comes in at the end of the scale with 18 percent. The Balkan country has no laws banning hate speech and violence against LGBTI people, no laws on gender-change and only four of the 13 listed laws on equality and antidiscrimination.
