pride - an alternative view



Not everyone enjoyed Birmingham Pride 2019. This small group, comprising a strikingly unusual combination of a Northern Ireland evangelist (shades of Ian Paisley), two Muslim ladies, various stoutly stockinged ladies and an eccentric gentleman who clasped a ghetto blaster tight to his head to block out nascent sin, expressed a contrary view.

Instead of love, joy, peace and harmony they appeared to support an agenda of hatred, fear and discord.

I beg to differ. I wore my NHS Pride badge to church on Sunday.

birmingham pride 2019



OK, I know there are a lot of pictures in this post but I just couldn't leave any out! So many people were so welcoming in allowing me to take their photograph that I simply had to show them all.

Birmingham Pride 2019 was a fantastic event. In times when fear, hatred, division and discord run rampant it was brilliant to see hope, love, unity and harmony win the day.  The LGBTQ community and their supporters did Birmingham proud!!!

So come with me on the parade, see the photos and enjoy a fantastic celebration of life in all its rich and beautiful diversity!
