Celebrating Gay Pride with LGBT Labour

Pride LogoFrom @LabourList

To celebrate Pride and the huge achievements Labour have made in advancing gay rights over the last 12 years, LabourList will be guest edited between Friday and Sunday by LGBT Labour executive member Richard Lane.

Richard has some fantastic contributors lined up including Ed Balls on homophobic bullying, Andy Burnham on HIV / AIDS, Stephen Twigg on gay activism and Peter Tatchell on the challenges still ahead.

He also has a few surprises in store, but you’ll have to wait and see what those are about.

This will be the fourth opportunity LabourList has had to celebrate the many strands of the Labour movement, following International Women’s Day, the Young Labour takeover and the May Day UnionList.org special. We hope to make it an even more regular feature in the future.

Remind yourself of some of Labour’s achievements on gay rights by watching the video for the European elections below:
