Protesters from the group Just Stop Oil disrupted London's Pride March, opposing the event's sponsorship from "high-polluting industries". Several activists were arrested after blocking the road in front of a Coca-Cola truck. Despite the protests, the Pride festival attracted a large number of attendees, with organizers expecting over 1.5 million people throughout the day. London mayor Sadiq Khan led the parade and emphasized the importance of inclusivity and diversity. The first Pride march took place in London in 1972 and has since become one of the world's largest celebrations of the LGBTQ+ community.
