    A week before Pride last year, my town was dripping in rainbows. The march is this coming Saturday and I have seen maybe 4 or 5 in town and all on businesses, people are nervous .

    We’ve decided that we’d rather not risk marking our house out and aren’t putting one up either.

      This is sad to read. This is exactly what the bigots want.

        It is, but we have kids and quite frankly I’m not about to put them at risk of being screamed at, or my house at risk of attack. My neighbours are amazing and we get on really well with them, but it’s not them I’m bothered about. It’s the random nutter radicalised by the idiots across the border and Pierre fucking Polievre
