Downing Street has described as “very concerning” multiple allegations of sexual misconduct made against the couple who run PinkNews, the world’s largest LGBTQ+ website. The BBC reported that more than 30 current and former staff of PinkNews have accused its founder and CEO, Benjamin Cohen, and his husband, Anthony James, of inappropriate behaviour towards younger male colleagues. Several former staff members told the BBC they had witnessed James, a director and chief operating officer of the UK-based organisation, kissing and groping a junior colleague who they believed was too drunk to consent.
