‘Jesus had 2 dads’: The best signs on display at London Pride
London Pride, but we know it’s your signs and outfits that low-key stole the show. Over a million people descended on the capital today for the 50th anniversary of the first ever march.
The sky turned rainbow-coloured as LGBT+ people, allies, activists, politicians, bikers, celebrities and even dogs marched through the capital for the first time since the pandemic.Metro.co.uk is at the scene speaking to people about why the event is so important (and sussing out the very best outfits and signs on display).
In a defiant message to religious zealots, one banner said: ‘If God hates us why are we so cute.’Another religious-themed banner said: ‘Jesus had two dads.’A third brandished a flag which simply told haters: ‘F**k off’.
Other signs carried inspirational messages about inclusivity and being yourself. One person wore a t-shirt which said: ‘The only choice I made was to be myself.’Another donned a Harry Potter-themed top which said: ‘No one should live in a closet.’The march was led by Gay Liberation Front (GLF) activists who organised the very first Pride parade in the UK 50 years ago.
