Hundreds of thousands of UK residents marched across London as part of London Trans Pride 2025 yesterday (26 July).

Members of the public from across the country shrugged off the cloudy weather to spread messages of trans liberation across the nation’s capital.

Marching from Langham Place to Parliament Square, activists held an array of signs, both spreading trans positivity and condemning institutions, including the Labour government, that have rolled back many of the community’s rights since taking office.

Others chanted slogans of LGBTQ+ liberation and opposition to prime minister Sir Keir Starmer’s continued attacks on the trans community.

Marchers also overwhelmingly expressed solidarity with the people of Gaza amid continued Israeli bombings in the region, with multiple Palestinian flags visible within the miles-long crowd.

Last year, the grassroots Pride march saw a whopping 55,000 people march for trans rights, with figureheads of the community, including Heartstopper actress Yasmin Finney and trans reality TV star and influencer Ella Morgan, making an appearance.

Yasmin Finney and Ella Morgan both made a return for London Trans Pride 2025, as well as activist Caroline Litman, Brighton Trans Pride co-founder Fox Fisher, and Trans Solidarity Alliance founder Jude Guaitamacchi.

Speaking to PinkNews, Guaitamacchi said that the energy of the march was positive, but that they could feel the “weight of everything that’s going on at the moment.”

“There’s never been more of a need for London Trans Pride because Pride has always been a protest and, right now, we are protesting for our human rights that have been stripped away.”
