Tonights Telegraph has an interview with a bloke who is pushing for a annual gay parade for Accrington.His reasons behind this idea is that Accy is missing out on the pink pound,there is no visible gay scene and as with Manchester & Blackpool,maybe a thriving gay scene would bring in international visitors who will spend & invest in the town.Anyway,the crunch question...how well do you think a gay parade will be welcomed through the streets of Accy?Will it be the big colourful mardi gras of say,Manchester(so i'm told) or ,as i think it would be,a bottle throwing,abuse giving,good day out for the chavs
