For clarity, this is old parade footage. Until Labour commits to standing up for our entire community, they will not be welcome to march. Our ban on political parties marches remains in place this year.
Today, we celebrate
#NationalComingOutDay
. Whether you're lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer, be proud of who you are!
If you're not ready to come out, don't worry, the time will come and when it feels right, we'll be here to welcome you.
Very excited to join
@GWRHelp
this morning for the naming of
#Trainbow
after the incredible
#AlanTuring
. The colours have also been updated to the inclusive
#Pride
flag colours. 🎉 We can't wait to see the train and your pictures across the region.

It was also wonderful to hear from
@Dylan4Compton
. As we reflected on what Alan might have achieved, we heard of repeated cycle of prejudice once aimed and gay men now aiming at the Trans community and how the new livery reflects the unity & strength within that for our community
What a day!
We've been blown away by the love that is being shown for the rainbow crossing that has "officially" opened today.

Just weeks after the city came together to celebrate Pride we are saddened to see hateful protestors attacking diversity and inclusion events at Bristol Libraries with tired homophobic and transphobic tropes. 🧵
Why we still need Pride. We are proud to also make a stand against racism. Infact all forms of prejudice and hatred. Let's be extra loud and proud on the parade tomorrow eh.

#TransDayOfRemembrance
we must remember those who've been lost.
With those working to divide us, and our community becoming fractured, we must show unfaltering support to our trans family who face ever-increasing attacks against their rights.
Don't stand by, speak out & act.
Today is International Non-Binary People's Day!
The
@stonewalluk

A very special & different Pride Day on 10th July will be held at Castle Park, following our Pride Parade March. This will be a day for the community to gather and celebrate! 🏳️🌈

A sad & stark reminder of why we continue to fight for equality. Why LGBT+ people still fear simple things like sharing a kiss or holding hands in public. Why we still need

events and why you don't get a

train launching today. Celebrating Pride, showcasing commitment to staff, raising awareness & celebrating equality and diversity. What a great way to arrive at
#BristolPride
on 14 July and other Pride events across the route
#WorldOceanDay
a great time to remind you to purchase biodegradable glitter for
#Pride
There's an incredible range available now and standard glitter is a micro plastic that fills our oceans. So make the switch and shimmer without the guilt.
Wow. What an incredible Bristol Pride Dog Show. Thank you everyone for such a lovely day. So many incredible outfits and doggos. We look forward to sharing photos from the day soon.
So disappointed by UK government move to block the Scottish Gender Reform Bill. A bill years in consideration & debate, that aligns with international practice, endorsed by the UN and already adopted by 30 counties. It undermines the devolution. It’s disrespects us all. 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️🌈
Today is the start of
#BristolPride
2023! After our billboard was set alight the response from Bristol & beyond has been overwhelming & gratefully received - Thank you! Happy Pride! We'll see you at March & Pride Day festival on Sat 8 July if not before!🌈
The fabulous Trans flag in our march was borrowed from
@PrideCymru
and is currently winging its way from us to
@prideinhull
for the weekend. It's making its way round a number of UK prides as we stand in solidarity with our Trans community and each other.
#PrideWithTheT
Just 4 days to go 'til one of the biggest
#Pride
events in the UK! Run by volunteers who are working incredibly hard to deliver another incredible event. 100s of performers, parade march, markets, bars, food, community stalls + a whole host of afterparties
Take a look back at Bristol Pride day👏 we've got more exciting news, we're returning 13 July 2024, get that date in your diary!🗓 For the first time ever, we’ve released a limited number of 2024 Advance Supporter Wristbands held at our 2023 prices 🏳️🌈 🏳️⚧️
Record number on the parade which means the festival at harbourside will be incredibly busy for the next hour or so. If you have not set off yet please wait and join us later while we get the parade into the festival

#ValentinesDay
we still live in a world where
#LGBT
+ people are at risk just for who they love. Can be killed for being who they are, where here in the UK where 2/3 of LGBT+ people are scared to hold hands in public. Love is Love & everyone should be free to love & be loved
Wow! We won! Thank you so much to all the nominated and then voted for
