1996 London Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Pride

This page is largely here to take care of my photos from Pride '96. Sorry to all you lynx users. Let me give you the only really useful link on this page, to Pride '97, so you don't have to wade through my image-heavy page.

Here are my pictures:

March2

Two pictures to show the scale of the march. They were actually taken from the same spot, facing in opposite directions. Yep, there really were that many people there. Isn't that policeman a dish, as well? He must have had a few requests to fondle his truncheon.

Political point. Of course Portillo is now nothing more than a bad memory, but it's a nice reminder not to get too complacent about politicians. Also, of course, I can't think of Portillo without recalling the odious little toad being kicked out of Parliament on May 1st/2nd. I really wish I had that on video, so I could watch his smug grin disappear, over and over again. Apparently you can buy a video of the Election, so you can be assured that I'll be buying that real soon now. But I digress....

Mostly, though, Pride is a day for people, rather than political causes. I'm really looking forward to Pride '97, and maybe I'll see you there.
