Refulgent rainbow?

It's London Pride tomorrow.

The Times was in rainbow colours last weekend.

Peter Tatchell isn't impressed with Gordon Brown's status as a gay-hugging PM. There's also more work to be done to continue the radicalism of the Stonewall Riots.

Meanwhile, over the water, there are also contradictions afoot in the White House.

Still, there are certainly reasons to be positive and celebratory.

Two things to buy: a re-released Stonewall Riots doc; and what sounds like a fun, fascinating, but certainly not frivolous film from Cuba: Strawberry and Chocolate.
