Liberal Democrat MP Simon Hughes today promised legislation before the May General Election to pardon those with historic convictions for being homosexual. Mr Hughes made the promise this afternoon during a political hustings event at National Student Pride at the University of Westminster in Marylebone. He said if there is not enough parliamentary time to change the law, it will be part of the Liberal Democrat election manifesto.
National Student Pride opened last night during the final weekend of LGBT History Month. Confirmed speakers include: Dustin Lance Black, Oscar winning screen writer of the movie, Milk and partner of Tom Daley; Dominic Treadwell-Collins, executive producer of EastEnders; Alica Eyo, Emmerdale; Owen Jones, author of ‘Chavs’ and popular columnist for the Independent, Bethany Black, Transgender comedian and star of Cucumber and Heather Pace from Lip Service. Lucy Spraggan, Gaydio’s Matt Crab and Drag Queen Mary Mac will be judging ‘Student Pride Voice X’. The winner will appear on Gaydio radio and sings at London Pride.
Student Pride will be held at the end of LGBT History month (Feb 27 – Mar 1) centred around a daytime festival at the University of Westminster’s Marylebone campus opposite Madame Tussauds. The City of Brighton & Hove lost the honour and kudos of staging Student Pride to London in 2014 through spiraling costs of staging such an event in the city and failure of the city council and local councillors to do anything to help this unique Pride remain.
