As 2011 draws to a close, PinkNews.co.uk takes a look back at the most important stories of the last twelve months.
This year saw real change around the world when it came to LGBT rights.

But the campaigners – far ahead of their time in their methods – had recognised the need for a major business figure to stand beside them and declare his (it was two centuries ago) support. That man was Charles Grant, chairman of the East India Company, which then controlled over half of world trade.

While some people told him it was wrong to tweet from his dad’s funeral, Montgomery said responses were mostly positive. Because she was taking care of her mother so much, Zigman wasn’t able to spend as much time with friends.
