Leicester Pride Fundraiser at The Rainbow & Dove Leicester and James's Birthday Photograph

I was invited to attend the Leicester Pride 2011 fund raising event and the owner of the Rainbow Doves Birthday Celebration. As the government had paid for me to attend my first work programme interview I was able to attend for a short time. Public transport in out of Rutland is subject is not very good. Unless you drive you have no chance of a good night out.

According to the no homophobic guidance received from Oakham Town Council Mayor, there are no photographs of me included in this blog post or drag queens.

Cllr Joyce Lucas feels its not homophobic to suggest to a Gay Councillor "he should not be photographed in a gay bar or photograph drag queens and post on this blog because it brings the position of councillor into disrepute"





I understand my photograph was taken last night and may be found on Facebook, I wish to apologise in advance to any Oakham resident who may be offended by seeing their councillor in a gay bar! at a Pride fund raising event.

You will notice from the photographs below the event was highly respectable and everyone managed to keep there knickers on unlike local Oakham dignitaries.
 


Happy Birthday James
