"We're proud to be an LGBT-friendly council and these special traffic signals drive home our message".

How appropriately expressed.

Quirky and grand, what fun.

I notice that the symbol on display represents only the first community acknowledged in the extended acronym "LGBTQwerty".

Many more to go, and plenty more creative opportunities for graphic artists.

[vetuste_ennemi]

I assume clear and useful messages like "Stop" and "Go" haven't been compromised by these entertaining embellishemnts to traffic lights.

You know a bit about gay stuff, mamya. Has the little man in the second picture got a nappy or a pair of hot pants on?

[Spicerack]

They've shut the roads down, ve. So the lights are only needed to add gaiety to the scene.

[vetuste_ennemi]

Not, of course, that I'm suggesting that they should. Diversity is our strength.

[Mamyalynne]

That's the light love. he's a Commando.

What has gender got to do with crossing the road? I’m all for LGBTQ+ rights, but what was wrong with the nondescript green figure?

[Mamyalynne]

It's only foe the Pride march Clover, not permanent.

[Spicerack]

Nothing wrong with it, per se, Clover, but when you've got oodles of money and nothing better to do with it, why not make the place look fabulous for one day.

[Cloverjo]

I was only talking about the pedestrian crossing lights. Of course they should hang out the bunting for the march.
