Petition Make it an offence to protest at an equality event or celebration

Events that celebrate or try to raise awareness of equality issues In the UK should be safe places.
If you attend a pride or rally, you shouldn't have to face people who are protesting against your human rights & entitlements.
Protesting (even peacefully) at these events should be an offence!

More details

Equality is for everybody.
I agree that all are entitled to an opinion but an opinion that affects somebody's rights should be kept to yourself.

People who are celebrating, I.e. Gay pride, deserve to feel safe & to be in a non-judgemental environment at these events. With protesters there, you often find arguments start, abuse & threats are often directed at those celebrating.

Humans rights are for everyone, regardless of any factor.
