    Drag Queen La Voix has her entire livelihood ripped away as tour van stolen

    Britain’s Got Talent star, La Voix has sent an emotional message to her fans to keep a look out for her tour van which was stolen in the early hours of the morning.

    The drag star is currently touring the UK on her Red Ambition tour.

    At approximately 1 AM this morning (September 20), the van, which contains equipment and costumes estimated to be valued at £30,000, was taken from the Dunstable area. 

    In an emotional video posted to social media, La Voix said: “I’m just appealing if anyone sees the van, if you’re offered any dresses any costumes please, please, please, please, inform the police, let me know. I’ve got to got to get this stuff back. This is everything. This is my livelihood. This is my business. It’s not just me it’s my crew, my band, about 10-15 people rely on this show for their income.

Vans are replaceable, everything’s replaceable but not the stuff I need to go out there and make people have a good night. It’s my job to make people laugh and they have taken away the tools Ineed to make that happen.

    “The dresses mean nothing to you, they’re everything to me. Please, please, please, please. And if you see an interesting person walking around in a Diana Ross dress it’s probably mine.”

  • Shrewsbury school branded “inadequate” after students speak of homophobic, racist and sexual harassment

    Shrewsbury school branded “inadequate” after students speak of homophobic, racist and sexual harassment

    A School in Shrewsbury school was labelled “inadequate” after its students told Ofsted inspectors that incidents of racist comments, homophobic behaviours and sexual harassment were commonplace.

    The Meole Brace School in Shrewsbury was found to “require improvement” according to Ofsted. The report stated,

    “A significant minority of pupils misbehave in lessons. This disrupts the learning of others. Where this happens, staff do not deal with this consistently well. Leaders have not yet done enough to ensure that all staff address the poor behaviour of pupils effectively. Pupils told inspectors that incidents of racist comments, homophobic behaviours and sexual harassment are commonplace.

    Students not confident in staff to deal with their issues.

    They are not confident that staff will deal with their concerns if they raise them. Because of this, pupils do not report concerns and have accepted the inappropriate behaviour they experience.”

    “Some pupils do not enjoy school as much as they should. Many pupils express unhappiness about access to, and the condition of, the school’s toilet facilities.

    Homophobic bullying in school

    In 2017 a study by the University of Cambridge found that 45% of gay students face homophobic bullying. Among gay pupils, 45% have encountered bullying, primarily in the form of insults or gossip. However, 7% reported experiencing physical attacks, and 4% reported receiving “death threats.”

    Alan Doust, headteacher, said, “It is not so much that we disagreed with some of the things they said, it is more that we think Ofsted failed to balance the things they found out in a proportionate way, or to take a wide enough sample and perspective.”

    Liz Malpass, chair of governors, said, “The school has been in dispute with Ofsted since the inspection, because, like many schools, we are concerned about how heavily they have relied on a smaller sample of our school community, and we think there are inconsistencies with other inspections.”

    Read more about the school’s s response here.

    The role of Ofsted

    Ofsted stands for the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills. It is a non-ministerial government department in the United Kingdom responsible for inspecting and regulating schools, colleges, and other educational institutions. Ofsted’s primary role is to evaluate and report on the quality of education and services provided by these institutions to ensure that they meet the standards and requirements set by the government.

    Ofsted inspections assess various aspects of education and care, including the quality of teaching, the effectiveness of leadership and management, the overall student or learner experience, and safeguarding and child protection measures. These inspections play a crucial role in holding educational institutions accountable and helping parents, students, and the public make informed decisions about where to access education and childcare services.

    In addition to schools and colleges, Ofsted also inspects and regulates other services related to children and young people, such as early years childcare providers, adoption and fostering agencies, and children’s social care services. Ofsted’s findings and reports are made available to the public and contribute to ongoing efforts to improve the quality of education and services for children and learners in the UK.

  • Police release picture of man they’d like to talk to in connection to homophobic stabbings in London

    Police release picture of man they’d like to talk to in connection to homophobic stabbings in London

    Detectives investigating a homophobic attack on two men outside the Two Brewers in Clapham have issued fresh images of the man they want to trace.

    The images were taken from a route 50 bus in Thornton Heath at approximately 20:30hrs, before the incident.

    Detective Chief Inspector Jivan Saib from the local policing team in Lambeth leads the investigation and said:

    “These images provide a clearer picture of the person we need to identify and locate following this shocking attack. I would urge people to look at these images – do you know this man? Do you recognise the clothes he is wearing? 

    “If you can help identify him then please get in touch.”

    The incident happened at approximately 22:15hrs on Sunday, 13 August as the two men stood outside a nightclub – they were approached by a man who attacked them with a knife before running away.

    Both men, aged in their 20s and 30s, were taken to hospital for treatment and have since been discharged.

    Officers continue to follow-up a number of lines of enquiry provided by witnesses and members of the public as they work to locate and arrest the suspect.

    There are also ongoing patrols in and around the area of Clapham High Street which will continue over the coming days.


    PC Hayley Jones who is the dedicated LGBT+ Community Liaison Officer (CLO) for Lambeth and Southwark added: 

    “We understand some people from the LGBT+ community may not have the confidence to speak to police; my role was introduced to provide a dedicated LGBT+ point of contact to support the community and advise on investigations where homophobia and transphobia is a motive. You can contact me directly for advice and support, or to assist this investigation.”

    Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101 or tweet @MetCC and quote CAD 7198/13Aug. You can also provide information anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

  • Two gay men viciously attacked in South London

    Two gay men viciously attacked in South London

    In South London, a distressing incident unfolded where two gay men became victims of assault, echoing the homophobic stabbing near The Two Brewers bar in Clapham that occurred a mere week earlier. The unfortunate recipients of this attack were Michael Smith and his partner Nat Asabere. Their ordeal unfolded while they waited for a bus around 11 p.m. in Brixton on Saturday, August 19.

    This incident followed their participation in the UK Black Pride event earlier in the day.

    The assailant, an unfamiliar man, confronted the couple, subjecting them to violence. Asabere was struck at the back of his head, while Smith endured a series of “three or four” punches to his face. Fearing for their safety, they managed to escape onto a bus. The extent of Smith’s injuries came to light only after they had fled, eventually leading to medical treatment.

    Recounting the events to the BBC, Smith shared, “Fortunately, my instinct to flee kicked in, and we sought refuge on that bus. It was then that I noticed blood staining my shirt, leaving me bewildered about its source. The taste of blood in my mouth and its presence on my hands, along with the sensation of a significant split in my lip, became apparent.”

    No Arrests Made

    As of now, no arrests have been made, and law enforcement is treating this incident as an act of homophobia. This attack follows another disturbing event where two men were stabbed outside the Two Brewers in Clapham on August 13, just over a week prior. The victims of that incident were men in their 20s and 30s, attacked by an individual wielding a knife.

    Authorities at the Metropolitan Police are actively pursuing the perpetrator.

    Although the attacks transpired within close proximity and a short timeframe of each other, the Metropolitan Police do not believe there is a connection between the two incidents. The aftermath of the assault has left Asabere grappling with headaches, while Smith struggles to come to terms with the incident and its impact on him emotionally.

    Smith expressed the growing concern over escalating anti-LGBTQ+ sentiments contributing to heightened hostility against the community. In response to this ordeal, he is raising funds for Stonewall, an organization dedicated to LGBTQ+ rights.

    Reflecting on his decision to take action, Smith shared, “I had to channel all those complex emotions into something positive. That’s why I initiated a fundraiser and chose to speak out. I understood that if I kept silent, it would only eat away at me.”

    Individuals with information regarding the attack are encouraged to contact the police at 101, referencing case number 8673/22AUG. For those who have witnessed or been victims of hate crimes, seeking help is strongly advocated. The police can be reached at 101, Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111 for anonymous tips, or via the True Vision website. In emergencies, dial 999.

    When was the first pride in the UK?

    The first Pride event in the UK, known as the UK’s first official Gay Pride Rally, took place in London on July 1, 1972. 

    The event, organized by the Gay Liberation Front, saw around 2,000 participants marching from Trafalgar Square to Hyde Park. It was a significant milestone in the LGBTQ+ rights movement and marked the beginning of an annual tradition of Pride celebrations in the UK.

    Since then, Pride events have grown in size, visibility, and importance, spreading to various cities and regions across the country. At last count, there were over 170 prides in the UK. The UK boasts two of the largest prides events in the world in London and Brighton.

  • UK government apologises for anti-gay employment policies in the Armed forces

    The UK’s government has apologised over what it called, “egregious” policies that banned gay and lesbian people from working in the armed forces.

    The government issued a formal apology for the mistreatment of LGBT veterans, following the release of an independent review investigating the military’s ban on LGBT personnel before 2000.

    The review, presented in Parliament, was initiated by the Ministry of Defence and the Office for Veterans Affairs and chaired by Lord Etherton. Its focus was to examine the experiences of individuals affected by the ban on homosexuality in the Armed Forces between 1967 and 2000.

    Unacceptable and regrettable

    Previously, the government acknowledged that the treatment of LGBT personnel and veterans before 2000 was completely unacceptable and regrettable. The report by Lord Etherton revealed that investigations into individuals’ sexuality were intrusive and invasive, resulting in severe and long-lasting impacts on the lives of veterans and their families.

    The government’s unwavering commitment to supporting veterans and the LGBT community was highlighted in the review. The Prime Minister and Defence Secretary offered a formal apology in the House of Commons today to all those who suffered under the ban.

    The review focused on three main areas: the impact of the historical policy on affected individuals and their future lives, the accessibility of veterans’ services for LGBT people, and the full recognition and acceptance of LGBT veterans as valued members of the armed forces.

    Sunak expressed deep remorse

    Prime Minister Rishi Sunak expressed deep remorse, acknowledging that the ban on LGBT individuals serving in the military until 2000 was a failure of the British state, lagging far behind the country’s laws. He recognized the immense suffering endured by many who faced sexual abuse, violence, and homophobic bullying while courageously serving their nation.

    Defence Secretary Ben Wallace was pleased that the review shed light on a shameful chapter in the Armed Forces’ history, acknowledging the denial of tolerance and values to many who served.

    Restoring medals, pension rights

    Within the review, 49 recommendations were made, including the restoration of withheld medals, clarification of pension rights, and the presentation of the Veterans Badge, among others. The government accepted these recommendations in principle and committed to collaborating with LGBT veterans to ensure the appropriate implementation of restorative measures.

    Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Johnny Mercer viewed the apology as a historic moment to address past wrongs and honor the extraordinary service of LGBT veterans. He also emphasized the need to enhance support services for veterans impacted by the issues raised in the review.

    Minister for Defence, People, Veterans, and Service Families, Dr. Andrew Murrison, acknowledged the wrongdoing and pledged to study the review’s recommendations to determine the government’s response.

    Since 2000, the government has made significant strides in removing barriers and implementing initiatives to improve the experience of LGBT personnel. These include providing guides for parents of LGBT children, delivering LGBT allies training, and offering Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).

    The establishment of the Office for Veterans’ Affairs has also expanded support for all veterans as they transition out of the Armed Forces.

    The review is a crucial part of the Government’s Veterans Strategy Action Plan, demonstrating its commitment to compassionately address historical hurt and disadvantage experienced by sections of the veteran community.

    Furthermore, the government has extended the Home Office’s disregard and pardons scheme to ensure the expungement of convictions for same-sex sexual offences.

    To support those impacted by the ban and today’s announcement, the Office for Veterans’ Affairs is providing £250,000 to LGBT organizations for offering support services to affected veterans. This is in addition to the £45,000 funding provided last year to help gather evidence for the review.

    Craig Jones MBE, Executive Chair, and Caroline Paige, Chief Executive of Fighting With Pride, expressed relief that the voices of those who suffered under this abhorrent policy are finally heard and their truth acknowledged. They view the government’s apology as a significant step toward providing substantial reparations and ending this unjust and dishonourable chapter in history.

  • Where is the nudist beach in Brighton?

    Where is the nudist beach in Brighton?

    Sussex’s coastal beauty is like a never-ending parade of stunning sights, guaranteed to keep your jaw dropping perpetually!

    Yet, for those craving a change of scenery that’s not just skin-deep, why not dare to bare it all on a nudist beach?

    Unleash your inner wild child and let the salty sea breeze work its magic, liberating you from clothed imprisonment.

    Thankfully, Brighton holds the crown for one of the UK’s top spots to strip down and set your inhibitions free and it’s also home of the gayest place in the UK.

    Among the fearless few who dare to disrobe and defy the Great British weather, Black Rock Naturist Beach in Brighton proudly claims its spot on the prestigious list. Joining this daring destination are other alluring locations in Kent, Devon, Scotland, and Dorset, where the brave and the bare mingle with the elements!

    Just a stone’s throw away from the heart of Brighton lies a nudist beach that breaks all the norms of typical naturist hideaways. While many au naturel spots remain hidden gems, lacking amenities and creature comforts, this 200-yard stretch at the city’s eastern end is a revelation. Conveniently close to the marina, you won’t have to embark on an expedition to find it!

    Backed by a promenade and a small grassy area, this coastal gem ensures you won’t have to endure pebbly discomfort throughout your sunbathing adventures. Ah, the bliss of it all!

    Now, it wouldn’t be a truly iconic spot without some controversy, and this beach had its fair share when it debuted in the 1980s. But hey, times have changed, and today, it proudly stands as one of the most beloved naturist havens in all of Britain.

    Do more men or women go?

    Is there a naked beach in Brighton?

    Admittedly, there’s been a bit of a tiff over gender balance at times, with male visitors seemingly claiming the limelight. Nevertheless, the general consensus is that everyone is warmly embraced, and all are made to feel right at home. So, whether you’re a seasoned nudist or a first-time skinny-dipper, this beach beckons with open arms and a breathtaking view of the sea and the city combined!

    What do the locals think?

    Well, well, well, it seems like the reviews on TripAdvisor for this nudist beach are quite the mixed bag! Among the range of experiences, we stumbled upon one rather amusing tale from a visitor.

    According to this bold adventurer, he and his wife decided to give this naturist beach a shot. Things started off rather peacefully, with an empty beach providing a seemingly serene setting. However, the peace was short-lived as soon as the wife decided to embrace her inner free spirit and shed her clothes. Within a mere 10 minutes, she became the centre of attention, drawing the gaze of several intrigued gents.

    Now, while the husband might not have been too thrilled about the surplus of attention his better half received, he couldn’t deny the fact that the day turned out to be quite an eventful one. In his words, it evolved into a “good day on the beach playing with the guys.”

    Well, it just goes to show that this nudist beach certainly has the power to make memories and create some unforgettable experiences for its visitors!

    Getting loose with Lucy

    Ah, Lucy from Reigate seems to have embraced the liberating allure of the nudist beach with absolute grace and poise. Her candid account reveals a journey of courage and self-discovery in this unique environment.

    Once she took that bold step to strike up conversations with fellow naturists, all inhibitions seemed to melt away. Lucy felt a profound sense of freedom, unburdened by the fear of judgment. It’s a testament to the welcoming atmosphere that nudist communities can foster.

    Indeed, she noticed that the male presence was quite prominent, whether they were solo visitors, couples, or in groups. However, Lucy also appreciated the diverse mix of attendees, including single couples and groups of women. The feeling of ease was reinforced by seeing these diverse configurations, and she comfortably engaged in conversations, sunbathing, and swimming with them.

    In addition to the warm social ambience, Lucy appreciated the efforts put into maintaining the beach’s cleanliness and accessibility. Whether one arrives by train, bus, or car, the journey to this naturist haven is smooth and straightforward.

    Lucy’s experience beautifully captures the essence of this nudist beach: a place of acceptance, relaxation, and freedom where visitors can shed more than just their clothes—they can let go of societal expectations and simply be themselves.

    It appears that the nudist beach’s male-dominated reputation is echoed by several other reviewers as well. However, amidst this fact, a first-time naturist visitor from London had an exceptional time at the beach.

    Brighton is Immersive and inclusive

    For this adventurous couple, the trip was about seeking a tranquil day by the sea, opting for a lovely picnic and some relaxation. It was also their very first foray into the world of naturist beaches.

    Their experience turned out to be nothing short of fantastically liberating. The couple found themselves in the company of like-minded individuals who embraced their nakedness with ease. However, what sets this beach apart is the non-intrusive nature of nudism. While many may choose to bare it all, the beach creates an atmosphere where everyone is welcome, regardless of whether they decide to stay clothed or disrobed.

    Such an inclusive environment allowed the couple to truly immerse themselves in the moment, free from any pressure or judgment. This way, they could truly enjoy the experience and let their day unfold naturally, just like the sea waves lapping at the shore.

    Ultimately, Brighton’s naturist beach proved to be a place where visitors could find freedom, acceptance, and the power to choose how they want to experience it—truly a gem among the coastal beauty of Sussex!
