Sarah Brown Is To March At The London Parade
Sarah Brown, the wife of the British Prime Minister, announced that she will take part of the Gay Pride next Saturday in London.
The wife of the Prime Minister is to show her solidarity with the
LGBT community this Saturday when she will march in the Pride London
parade.
On Saturday morning Gordon and Sarah Brown will host a small
reception at 10 Downing St for Pride organisers, gay rights campaigners
and representatives of the pink press.
A Downing St spokesman told PinkNews.co.uk:
"Because of security considerations, the Prime Minister will not be
able to march himself, but Sarah wanted to show her continued
solidarity for the gay community by taking part.
"The Prime Minister will be showing his support at the reception on the morning of Pride."
It is thought to be the first time a Prime Minister's spouse has
taken part in Pride but it is not the first time Gordon and Sarah Brown
have demonstrated their support for gay equality.
Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take part in Pride London this Saturday, the country's biggest LGBT event.
