Gay Police to March in Scotland for First Time
June 25, 2009 by James Hipps
GAY POLICE will be marching in their uniform for the first time in Scotland when they join the gay pride march in Edinburgh tomorrow.
Seventy members of the Gay Police Association from around the UK will be taking part after getting permission from their chief constable.
Thousands of people are expected to start their march down the Royal Mile at 1pm after hearing speeches from a number of invited guests.
And the historic decision comes exactly 40 years after the Stonewall riots in New York, where a police crackdown at the Stonewall Inn sparked three nights of battles in the streets of Greenwich Village.
