Happy Pride everyone! 🌈

It's 40 years since the Welsh miners led the Pride march in London, as an act of solidarity with Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners. LGSM had fundraised for the miners during their strike, raising over £20,000, equivalent to £75,000 today.

Aww, it's a shame Blitz didn't win at the BAFTAs last night. But I stand by everything I wrote - the film is such an brilliant exploration of class, race, gender and motherhood during WW2. Highly recommend watching.
