The sense of unease loomed over the Pride parade in Paris on Saturday, hinted at by the banner reading: “The far right is the mortal enemy of LGBTI people.”
The gloom persisted, even as tens of thousands of people turned up for the march. “We hope that this Pride march won’t be our last,” one attender told Le Monde, as organisers warned that the rise to power of the far-right National Rally (RN) could sharply curtail LGBTQ+ rights.
