🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 NO PRIDE IN COPS 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

@PrideInLondon has forgotten that Pride’s history is rooted in resistance against police violence. So we’ve sent them an open letter demanding no police participation in this year’s parade!

Reject corporate pride.
Embrace traditional pride.

[Ben Smoke @bencsmoke]

this whole thread slaps! big up these legends, big up the workers, the people united will never be defeated!! ✊🏼

[Lesbians and Gays Support the Migrants @lgsmigrants]

Corporate pride marches continue to prioritise their big business sponsors over workers livelihoods

Queer solidarity means supporting striking workers ✊️✊️✊️

[RMT UNiON EDINBUGH @RMTedinburgh]

Talk about solidarity! 300 pride marchers broke from the official route to march & join RMT pickets at Waverley. The Pride establishment had been under fire for criticising our strike but the true spirit of protest and resistance was shown. Thanks to organisers and IWW comrades.
