150,000 March Through London in World’s Largest Trans Pride, Organisers Say
Thousands marched to Trafalgar Square to oppose EHRC guidance that says single-sex services must follow biological sex, not gender identity.
- On Saturday, an estimated 150,000 people marched through central London for London Trans+ Pride, filling Trafalgar Square to protest new Equalities and Human Rights Commission guidance on single-sex spaces.
- New EHRC guidance requiring single-sex services to operate on the basis of biological sex prompted the protest, with critics describing the political climate as a "hostile environment" for the trans community.
- The Trans+ Solidarity Alliance, represented by Alfie Bailey-Bearfield, warned that the guidance forces individuals to self-exclude from public life, while crowds observed artist Teresa Margolles's sculpture featuring 726 face casts.
- Author Juno Dawson urged Prime Minister Andy Burnham to reverse what she termed "anti-trans policies" overseen by his predecessor, Sir Keir Starmer, citing risks to young people's safety.
- Founder Lewis G Burton stated the rally exists to "remind people that we are not headlines, culture war talking points or distractions from society's real issues, we are human beings.
