Hate Crime Vigil
Soho Square 7pm 30th October
Soho Square 7pm 30th October
In response to the recent attack in Trafalgar Square, the rise in the number of homophobic attacks in London, and previous hate attacks, a vigil has been organised in Trafalgar Square on Friday 30th October 2009, 8pm.
Event organisers state that the aim of the vigil is to show the world that this anti-sociable behaviour is unacceptable in London.

If you’re interested in marching through Soho and helping to get people to join in along the way, meet us at Soho Square at 7pm. The aim is to get people out of the bars and on to the streets. Details here: FACEBOOK
As we say, it’s important that you join in, because this wasn’t just a homophobic attack. It was an attack on everyone’s right to walk through their city without fear of attack. This is about everyone, str8 and gay.

We are hoping that Darren Johnson, Chair of the London Assembly and Green Party Assembly Member, can speak. Green LGBT Group members will be there including me. It is simply appalling that such a murder can occur in Trafalgar Square at 10.30pm within sight of the supposedly LGBT friendly area of Soho. It demonstrates that homophobia and intolerance are on the march again encouraged by the likes of the BNP.
