Visits to Parliament are going queer next month, with two special gay-themed guided tours being offered.

This 75 minute guided tour highlights the significant part played by LGBT people in the UK Parliament as leaders, legislators, activists, lobbyists, and monarchs.

The narrative explores the struggle for civil rights from universal condemnation and victimisation to the relative freedoms and rights enjoyed today.

Beginning in Westminster Hall with tales of medieval kings, the tour moves through the Lords Chamber and the Commons Chamber where stories about members of both Houses are brought to life through the art and architecture.

There are a few scheduled dates for this tour throughout the year.

  • Saturday 16 February 2019

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.

Thank you
