Peter Tatchell has called on the UK's largest Pride event to return to its radical political roots, as veterans from the first march 50 years ago prepared to lead the parade in London.

Members of the Gay Liberation Front (GLF), who organised the first UK Pride march in London in 1972, will lead the parade, which celebrates the rights the LGBTQ+ community has won since then.
