The fight against Section 28 & for the rights of my LGBTQ+ friends was one of the causes that brought me into politics as a teenager 30 years ago. So proud to march @BirminghamPride today as @BrumLeader with my @BrumLabour & @LGBTLabourWM friends. I'll always be an ally. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
It’s great to see a big turnout at @BirminghamPride today from @LGBTLabourWM! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Thanks to @BrumLabour Councillors for joining us to march. A fantastic start to pride season!
Very proud to march with @LGBTLabourWM today! 🤩🏳️🌈 There is an amazing carnival atmosphere in Birmingham this weekend, and the sun was shining loud and proud, obvs! 😎☀️🎉
