IN response to the pictures and coverage of St Helens’ first Pride Festival.


Pride is about the the recognition to love whoever you want and be whoever you want without prejudice or risk (hate crime ).

An acceptance of the right to love whoever you want and be proud of that. An education in love is love and people are people. 


Until everyone accepts that, there will be Pride festivals all over the world.


As some countries (and people/organisations ) view loving whoever you want as a problem.
