Anti-trans group hijacking Pride Cymru ‘drowned out’ by a united LGBTQ+ community
Anti-trans demonstrators were all but “drowned out by the shouts of solidarity” from the LGBTQ+ community celebrating Pride Cymru.
On Saturday (27 August), the streets of Cardiff heaved with rainbow flags, handmade signs and tossed confetti for the largest LGBTQ+ event in Wales.
But members of lesbian separatist group Get The L Out UK gatecrashed the march, holding banners reading “Lesbian, not queer,” “TransActivism Erases Lesbians” and: “Lesbians Don’t Like Penises.”
Mobile phone footage showed South Wales Police asking the around dozen counter-protesters to “move to the side” to let Pride-goers continue marching along St Mary Street. The group, police said, were trying to block Pride Cymru to put it to a grinding halt.
Officers said their presence was causing “confrontations” between them and Pride-goers, with a clip showing a participant shouting “f**k off” to a member of Get The L Out UK.
terfs disrespecting Pride again.
