Well it is the capital and it doesn't cause any trouble or harm so there's no reason not to have it really.

What's his objection? I'll be interested to see. Does he want it banned countrywide or just in London for some reason.

I can't foresee any valid objections.

The UK ranks 30th in the World on the LGBT Equality Index, which takes into account legal rights (which it performs well at) as well as tolerance towards LGBT people socially. 30th is a poor placing and needs improving upon because every year it drops placements. this shows Pride is still needed.

There is no harm in pride, and it brings in swathes of tourism for cities like London, Manchester, Brighton, Liverpool, Bristol, etc... which is beneficial for its economy.

It'll be interesting to see what he has to say, considering he is self-proclaimed supporter of freedom of speech.

I agree completely. It's far removed from the likes of the Notting Hill Festival. It's peaceful.

I have no problem with Pride, so long as it's properly and responsibly run, unlike Notting Hill. God knows people need happy, fun events after two years of pro-Palestine marches every weekend.

Ali pointed out the Lack
of Funding that effected todays event.

He also stated many companies
are no longer funding it,
like what has gone down in America.

Yes it is. And that's exactly where, and only where, an annual event for the whole nation's LGBTQ should take place.

I can see why we're slipping on this issue, given that this Ali dude is questioning Pride's existence within the country.

Because would he like it if someone questioned himself being in the country? Because I bet that he wouldn't.

…lots of joyful Pride moments, it doesn’t feel as though any protests impacted the day in any big way for most…
