Newspaper article 'Straight and gay unite to boost Pride by 160,000' from The Observer, 25 June 1995. Includes quote from Jeremy Philpott, 25, from Cardiff who stated "It may be a celebration, but the simple act of being here is a political statement".

Russ Harris was part of this group attending London Pride and recalls "being fuelled by rum punch on the way to London, then joining hundreds of LGBTQ+ revellers and their supporters for a march through central London, ending at Clapham Common. The atmosphere was so positive, and the day morphed into evening.
