Solidarity with LGBT Orlando - Fight all hate - Activists with placards at London's vigil in memory of the victims of the Orlando gay nightclub terror attack.

Many hundreds of people, some wearing rainbow flags and others carrying placards, came to Old Compton Street in London’s Soho district to show solidarity with the victims of Omar Mateen who killed 49 people and seriously injured another 53 in a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida..

The large crowd could barely fit into the street and it fell silent at 7 pm as a sign of respect for all those killed and injured in America’s worst mass shooting in its modern history.

As well as activists from the Peter Tatchell foundation there were also a number of members from the “Out and Proud Diamond Group” at the vigil (for more information see below).

Peter Tatchell, the veteran human rights campaigner and head of the Peter Tatchell foundation, said

“the vigil is a huge act of solidarity and defiance. We are here, we are queer and we refuse to live in fear.”

He added that he thought the LGBT community would not be intimidated and he was confident that London’s LGBT pride on 25 June would prove to be the biggest ever.
