(London, UK) - Neither rain nor the discovery of two car bombs could deter tens of thousands of people from lining the streets Saturday for Gay Pride. The march left Baker Street and made its way through the West End to Trafalgar Square where gays and lesbians and their friends partied and enjoyed music for the remainder of the day. Police met Friday night with Pride organizers with both sides agreeing there was no need to cancel or alter the celebration. Police said they were strengthening patrols in the city, however, to reassure the public. London Mayor Ken Livingstone was joined by members of Parliament from the Labor and New Democrats took part in the pride festivities.
