LDVideo: Nick Clegg – Let’s use Pride in London to celebrate advances in LGBT rights

By | Sat 28th June 2014 - 10:10 am

Pink News reports that Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg has released a video celebrating Pride in London, saying we should celebrate advances made for LGBT rights. It quotes Nick saying:

“It is quite fitting that on the eve of London Pride weekend we were able to announce the final, crucial steps to making equal marriage a reality. From 10th December those couples who are currently in civil partnerships but want to enter into a marriage instead, will be able to do so.

“It has been a long struggle to get here and many people have worked tirelessly to ensure true marriage equality, but it has been worth it. This weekend we will be able to celebrate the advances our society has made for LGBT people, their friends and families.”

You can watch the video here…

    There really is no point. It’s been made clear to him again and again that the public are not going to listen to what he has to say. Why is he stubbornly refusing to give up?

    I hope that he will make a similar youtube video for Manchester Pride at August Bank Holiday.

    An excellent article. I am endlessly puzzled that the "R" in TERF stands for 'Radical' when their values are those of the Reactionary hard right.
