YESSSSSSSS!! Common sense prevails at last!!

[Deleted User X18H]

This is not a homophobic rant. But Pride has got too intense Brighton and Hove no longer needs it or wants it!!!

Brighton's Pride parade could be scrapped to make way for Olympics From The Argus)

Common sense and us staging the Olympics? Interesting choice of words.
So when the city needs all the money it can get we'll miss out on profit from Pride

 

[MattBackHome]

However Supt Davies said officers were still anticipating lots of people will organise events to tie in with Olympics.

He said: “Pride has a huge impact for us and the city council so it makes sense if we can agree to another arrangement, such as possibly moving it to a different period.

So they might just move the date? I'd say that was indeed, good common sense.

You mean *you* don't need or want it ? I have a feeling most of us simply don't care.

“We just need to decide how we are best going to celebrate with the LGBT community.”

I thought it was meant to be a celebration of your sexuality since they dropped the "gay" bit from the name

 

[maffew]

ie its for heterosexuals as well

 

[Notters]

Yes, no one wants it, oh, apart from the 250,000 people that attend annually.

You going this year Notters? Day after my dissertation deadline, so I'll be partying!

bag - if a regular nurses uniform is blue, a student nurse uniform is white, then what role do the nurses who wear the very pale green/almost grey uniform perform? Are they lesser bods than the blue uniforms?

(This is relevant to HB&B's thread honest)

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

We DONT need pride.

WHY? Because Brighton is a very gay friendly town 365 days of the year.

It should now be taken to places that are not gay friendly in order to promote equality.

Afterall thats why it started.

Now its just an excuse for people to litter the park and get off their faces, its little to do with "gay pride" as such. Look its Brighton for f*** sake we have a massive gay community and are well known for it. Start having it at places where there is homophobia.

Of course, along with everyone I know! My dissertations due on 28th august though....

Would they get 100,000+ people in HB&B's back garden? (no euphemism intended)

It's different in every trust I'm afraid. For example I wear a blue and white striped uniform (very sexy, I realise). They're probably health care assistants, so yes, they're "untrained" bods. Basically it means that they do more care - and the nurses do more paperwork.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Hmmm.

Something which is going to COST the tax payer MILLIONS.

Or something that generates MILLIONS for the Brighton economy.

Tough choice.

Thanks. Very apt choice of 'kit' for you!...at least it's not red and blue stripes

 

[maffew]

Hmmmm The once in a lifetime Olympics in London, or Pride getting moved to a different day for one year

That is a tough choice isnt it
