Leech made the case in the House of Commons that Turing's contribution to the war made him a national hero and that it was "ultimately just embarrassing" that the conviction still stood. Leech continued to take the bill through Parliament and campaigned for several years, gaining the public support of numerous leading scientists, including Stephen Hawking. At the British premiere of a film based on Turing's life, The Imitation Game, the producers thanked Leech for bringing the topic to public attention and securing Turing's pardon. Leech is now regularly described as the "architect" of Turing's pardon and subsequently the Alan Turing Law which went on to secure pardons for 75,000 other men and women convicted of similar crimes. − + − − On 26 July 2012, a bill was introduced in the House of Lords to grant a statutory pardon to Turing for offences under section 11 of the Criminal Law Amendment Act 1885, of which he was convicted on 31 March 1952. Late in the year in a letter to The Daily Telegraph, the physicist Stephen Hawking and 10 other signatories including the Astronomer Royal Lord Rees, President of the Royal Society Sir Paul Nurse, Lady Trumpington (who worked for Turing during the war) and Lord Sharkey (the bill's sponsor) called on Prime Minister David Cameron to act on the pardon request.Pearse, Damian, "Alan Turing should be pardoned, argue Stephen Hawking and top scientists" , The Guardian, 13 December 2012. Retrieved 15 December 2012. The government indicated it would support the bill, and it passed its third reading in the House of Lords in October. − + − − At the bill's second reading in the House of Commons on 29 November 2013, Conservative MP Christopher Chope objected to the bill, delaying its passage. The bill was due to return to the House of Commons on 28 February 2014, but before the bill could be debated in the House of Commons, the government elected to proceed under the royal prerogative of mercy. On 24 December 2013, Queen Elizabeth II signed a pardon for Turing's conviction for "gross indecency", with immediate effect. Announcing the pardon, Lord Chancellor Chris Grayling said Turing deserved to be "remembered and recognised for his fantastic contribution to the war effort" and not for his later criminal conviction. The Queen officially pronounced Turing pardoned in August 2014. The Queen's action is only the fourth royal pardon granted since the conclusion of the Second World War.Pardoned: Alan Turing, Computing patriarch. Time Magazine, vol. 183, no. 1, 13 January 2014, p. 14. Retrieved 6 January 2014. Pardons are normally granted only when the person is technically innocent, and a request has been made by the family or other interested party; neither condition was met in regard to Turing's conviction. − − In September 2016, the government announced its intention to expand this retroactive exoneration to other men convicted of similar historical indecency offences, in what was described as an "Alan Turing law". The Alan Turing law is now an informal term for the law in the United Kingdom, contained in the Policing and Crime Act 2017, which serves as an amnesty law to retroactively pardon men who were cautioned or convicted under historical legislation that outlawed homosexual acts. The law applies in England and Wales. 第352行：
第346行： − Turing was appointed an officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1946. He was also elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 1951.+ + − 图灵于一九四六年被任命为大英帝国勋章的军官。1951年，他还被选为英国皇家学会会员。 − Turing has been honoured in various ways in Manchester, the city where he worked towards the end of his life. In 1994, a stretch of the A6010 road (the Manchester city intermediate ring road) was named "Alan Turing Way". A bridge carrying this road was widened, and carries the name Alan Turing Bridge. A statue of Turing was unveiled in Manchester on 23 June 2001 in Sackville Park, between the University of Manchester building on Whitworth Street and Canal Street. The memorial statue depicts the "father of computer science" sitting on a bench at a central position in the park. Turing is shown holding an apple. The cast bronze bench carries in relief the text 'Alan Mathison Turing 1912–1954', and the motto 'Founder of Computer Science' as it could appear if encoded by an Enigma machine: 'IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO KVKZC GUBJ'. However, the meaning of the coded message is disputed, as the 'u' in 'computer' matches up with the 'u' in 'ADXUO'. As a letter encoded by an enigma machine cannot appear as itself, the actual message behind the code is uncertain.+ − A plaque at the statue's feet reads 'Father of computer science, mathematician, logician, wartime codebreaker, victim of prejudice'. There is also a Bertrand Russell quotation: "Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty—a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture." The sculptor buried his own old Amstrad computer under the plinth as a tribute to "the godfather of all modern computers".+ − − 图灵在曼彻斯特以各种方式获得了荣誉，他在这座城市工作直到生命的尽头。1994年，一段 a6010公路(曼彻斯特市中环线)被命名为“阿兰 · 图灵路”。一座承载着这条道路的桥梁被拓宽了，桥名为阿兰 · 图灵桥。图灵的雕像于2001年6月23日在 Sackville Park 揭幕，位于 Whitworth Street and Canal Street 的曼彻斯特大学大楼之间。纪念雕像描绘了“计算机科学之父”坐在公园中央的长椅上。图灵手里拿着一个苹果。铸造的青铜长凳上浮雕着文字‘艾伦·图灵1912-1954’，还有座右铭‘计算机科学的创始人’，如果用英格玛机器进行编码的话: ‘ IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO kvkkzc GUBJ’。然而，编码信息的含义是有争议的，因为“ computer”中的“ u”与“ adxeo”中的“ u”匹配。由于一封由英格玛密码机编码的信件不能以本身的形式出现，因此密码背后的真实信息是不确定的。雕像脚下的一块牌匾上写着“计算机科学之父、数学家、逻辑学家、战时密码破译者、偏见的受害者”。还有一句伯特兰·罗素: “正确地看待数学，它不仅拥有真理，而且拥有至高无上的美ーー一种冷峻的美，就像雕塑一样。”雕塑家把他自己的老 Amstrad 电脑埋在底座下，以此向“现代电脑之父”致敬。 − − In 1999, Time magazine named Turing as one of the 100 Most Important People of the 20th century and stated, "The fact remains that everyone who taps at a keyboard, opening a spreadsheet or a word-processing program, is working on an incarnation of a Turing machine." − − A blue plaque was unveiled at King's College on the centenary of his birth on 23 June 2012 and is now installed at the college's Keynes Building on King's Parade. − − On 25 March 2021, the Bank of England publicly unveiled the design for a new £50 note, featuring Turing's portrait, before its official issue on 23 June, Turing's birthday. Turing was selected as the new face of the note in 2019 following a public nomination process. − + − − To mark the 100th anniversary of Turing's birth, the Turing Centenary Advisory Committee (TCAC) co-ordinated the Alan Turing Year, a year-long programme of events around the world honouring Turing's life and achievements. The TCAC, chaired by S. Barry Cooper with Turing's nephew Sir John Dermot Turing acting as Honorary President, worked with the University of Manchester faculty members and a broad spectrum of people from Cambridge University and Bletchley Park. − − In May 2020 it was reported by Gay Star News that a high steel sculpture, to honour Turing, designed by Sir Antony Gormley, was planned to be installed at King's College, Cambridge. Historic England, however, was quoted as saying that the abstract work of 19 steel slabs "... would be at odds with the existing character of the College. This would result in harm, of a less than substantial nature, to the significance of the listed buildings and landscape, and by extension the conservation area."

===Government apology and pardon===
In August 2009, British programmer John Graham-Cumming started a petition urging the British government to apologise for Turing's prosecution as a homosexual. The petition received more than 30,000 signatures.The petition was only open to UK citizens. The Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, acknowledged the petition, releasing a statement on 10 September 2009 apologising and describing the treatment of Turing as "appalling":Thousands of people have come together to demand justice for Alan Turing and recognition of the appalling way he was treated. While Turing was dealt with under the law of the time and we can't put the clock back, his treatment was of course utterly unfair and I am pleased to have the chance to say how deeply sorry I and we all are for what happened to him&nbsp;... So on behalf of the British government, and all those who live freely thanks to Alan's work I am very proud to say: we're sorry, you deserved so much better.
2009年8月，英国程序员 John Graham-Cumming · 图灵发起请愿，敦促英国政府为图灵作为同性恋被起诉一事道歉。请愿书收到了超过30000个签名。请愿书只对英国公民开放。英国首相戈登 · 布朗承认了这份请愿书，并于2009年9月10日发表了一份声明，对图灵受到的待遇表示道歉，并称其“骇人听闻”:成千上万的人聚集在一起，要求为艾伦·图灵伸张正义，并承认他受到的可怕待遇。虽然图灵是根据当时的法律处理的，我们不能让时间倒流，但他的待遇当然是完全不公平的，我很高兴有机会对发生在他身上的事情表示深深的歉意，我们大家都很抱歉；因此，我代表英国政府，以及所有因艾伦的工作而自由生活的人们，非常自豪地说：我们很抱歉，你应该得到更好的待遇。

我们要求英国政府赦免艾伦·图灵的“严重猥亵罪”。1952年，他被判与另一名男子“严重猥亵”，并被迫接受所谓的“器官疗法”——化学阉割。两年后，他用氰化物自杀，年仅41岁。阿兰·图灵被他为拯救这个国家付出了巨大努力的国家推向了可怕的绝望和早逝。这仍然是英国政府和英国历史的耻辱。赦免可以在某种程度上治愈这种伤害。这可能是对许多其他同性恋者的道歉，不像艾伦·图灵那样知名，因为他们受到了这些法律的约束。

死后赦免被认为是不合适的，因为艾伦·图灵被正确地判定犯有当时的刑事罪。他会知道他的罪行是违法的，他会被起诉。不幸的是，艾伦·图灵被判犯有一项罪行，鉴于他对战争的杰出贡献，这项罪行现在看来既残忍又荒谬，尤其令人痛心。然而，当时的法律要求起诉，因此，长期以来的政策是接受这种定罪的发生，而不是试图改变历史背景，纠正不能纠正的事情，而是确保我们永远不会回到那个时代。

2016年9月，政府宣布打算将这种追溯性免罪扩大到其他被判犯有类似历史猥亵罪的男子，这项法律被称为“阿兰 · 图灵法”。阿兰 · 图灵法现在是英国法律的一个非正式术语，载于《2017年警务和犯罪法》 ，该法是一项大赦法，旨在追溯赦免那些根据历史立法被警告或定罪的男子，这些立法禁止同性恋行为。这项法律适用于英格兰和威尔士。

Turing has been honoured in various ways in [[Manchester]], the city where he worked towards the end of his life. In 1994, a stretch of the [[A6010 road]] (the [[Manchester]] city intermediate ring road) was named "Alan Turing Way". A bridge carrying this road was widened, and carries the name Alan Turing Bridge. A [[Alan Turing Memorial|statue of Turing]] was unveiled in Manchester on 23 June 2001 in [[Sackville Park]], between the University of Manchester building on Whitworth Street and [[Canal Street, Manchester|Canal Street]]. The memorial statue depicts the "father of computer science" sitting on a bench at a central position in the park. Turing is shown holding an apple. The cast bronze bench carries in relief the text 'Alan Mathison Turing 1912–1954', and the motto 'Founder of Computer Science' as it could appear if encoded by an [[Enigma machine]]: 'IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO KVKZC GUBJ'. However, the meaning of the coded message is disputed, as the 'u' in 'computer' matches up with the 'u' in 'ADXUO'. As a letter encoded by an enigma machine cannot appear as itself, the actual message behind the code is uncertain.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://benosteen.wordpress.com/2010/09/23/what-does-the-code-on-the-alan-turing-memorial-actually-say/|title=What does the code on the Alan Turing Memorial actually say?|date=23 September 2010|work=Random Hacks|access-date=28 June 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180628125202/https://benosteen.wordpress.com/2010/09/23/what-does-the-code-on-the-alan-turing-memorial-actually-say/|archive-date=28 June 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>[[File:Sackville Park Turing plaque.jpg|thumb|right|Turing memorial statue plaque in [[Sackville Park]], Manchester|链接=Special:FilePath/Sackville_Park_Turing_plaque.jpg]]A plaque at the statue's feet reads 'Father of computer science, mathematician, logician, wartime codebreaker, victim of prejudice'.

There is also a [[Bertrand Russell]] quotation: "Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty—a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture." The sculptor buried his own old [[Amstrad]] computer under the [[plinth]] as a tribute to "the godfather of all modern computers".<ref name="computerburied">{{cite news | url=http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/computer-buried-in-tribute-to-genius-1186583 | title=Computer buried in tribute to genius | work=Manchester Evening News | date=17 February 2007 | access-date=7 December 2014 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131104022559/http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/computer-buried-in-tribute-to-genius-1186583 | archive-date=4 November 2013 | url-status=live }}</ref>
图灵在曼彻斯特以各种方式获得了荣誉，他在这座城市工作直到生命的尽头。1994年，一段 a6010公路(曼彻斯特市中环线)被命名为“阿兰 · 图灵路”。一座承载着这条道路的桥梁被拓宽了，桥名为阿兰 · 图灵桥。图灵的雕像于2001年6月23日在 Sackville Park 揭幕，位于 Whitworth Street and Canal Street 的曼彻斯特大学大楼之间。纪念雕像描绘了“计算机科学之父”坐在公园中央的长椅上。图灵手里拿着一个苹果。铸造的青铜长凳上浮雕着文字‘艾伦·图灵1912-1954’，还有座右铭‘计算机科学的创始人’，如果用英格玛机器进行编码的话: ‘ IEKYF ROMSI ADXUO kvkkzc GUBJ’。然而，编码信息的含义是有争议的，因为“ computer”中的“ u”与“ adxeo”中的“ u”匹配。由于一封由英格玛密码机编码的信件不能以本身的形式出现，因此密码背后的真实信息是不确定的。
雕像脚下的一块牌匾上写着“计算机科学之父、数学家、逻辑学家、战时密码破译者、偏见的受害者”。还有一句伯特兰·罗素: “正确地看待数学，它不仅拥有真理，而且拥有至高无上的美ーー一种冷峻的美，就像雕塑一样。”雕塑家把他自己的老 Amstrad 电脑埋在底座下，以此向“现代电脑之父”致敬。
