UK: Transphobia at Pride - 2nd Open Letter from Commander Allen

It is clear that members of the trans communities and the officer found
themselves involved in a set of circumstances for which the trans
communities were not responsible. They were clearly the victims. It
has been claimed that the demonstrators assaulted stewards - examination
of CCTV evidence demonstrates that these claims are mistaken. Despite
the best endeavours and intentions of the officer, these obviously came
across in a way, which caused misinterpretation, confusion and hurt.
