Labour's Sian James slams US Pride DVD cover for removing gay and lesbian references

LABOUR MP Sian James has condemned the decision to remove all gay and lesbian references from the United States DVD cover of the critically acclaimed film Pride.

In an interview published today in the Star, Ms James criticises the marketing for the movie which tells the story of solidarity between miners and lesbian and gay socialists.

The original poster showed members of Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) marching past Parliament with a banner bearing their group’s name.
