Pride in London organizers have apologized after anti-trans protesters “forced their way to the front of the parade”. Members of lesbian and feminist group Get The L Out demanded to march behind the rainbow flag, which marks the start of the event, organizers said. The group argues the trans movement is attacking lesbian rights and said it protested to protect those rights. Pride said their behavior on Saturday was “shocking and disgusting”. It said they could not forcibly remove the small group because their protest was not a criminal offense, adding “we are sorry” but the “actions of eight people did not stop the joy and love”.
