It’s time for Christians to push back against the new Progress Pride flags dominating our towns and cities

Christian Concern are vowing to take Westminster Council to court over planning rules surrounding their annual display of ‘Progress Pride’ flags on London’s Regent Street. Andrea Williams explains why

With everything else going on in the world, why would Christians care about flags?

An enormous display of ‘Progress Pride’ flags has, once again, appeared on Regent Street – an iconic shopping street in London’s West End. The display was first put up as a one-off in 2022 to mark 50 years of Pride. But it has re-appeared in June ever since despite significant opposition.

This year, Christian Concern formally objected to the planning application. Even though the flags are now flying, we will be arguing the point that permission should not have been granted.
