The BBC News Channel reported that the latest attempt by far right wing groups to organise against LGBTQIA people In London had fallen flat on its face when a desultory fourteen extremists showed up to a drag queen performance that wasn’t even happening. As the US Newswire LGBTQ Nation notes “Even better, they were overwhelmed by nearly 150 pro-LGBTQ+ counterprotesters.” The pro-LGBTQ+ contingent carried signs stating, “Don’t let the far right divide us: Defend LGBTQ+ communities” and “Smash fascism and racism by any means necessary.” Its members also chanted “Fascist scum off the streets!” and “Cheerio!” over a megaphone as the far right protestors eventually walked away from the bar.
