The King of the United Kingdom Charles III and dignitaries gathered on Monday for the inauguration of a wavy and almost floating memorial monument filled with letters. The monument is the first in the United Kingdom to honor the LGBTQ people who serve the country’s military.

The archived link doesn’t work.
Also, they never even mention what the memorial is called in the article. And this is supposed to honor LGBTQIAP+?! Get the fuck out of here.
If they wanted to soft launch LGBTQIAP+ stuff, they should’ve started with with the genius that broke an Alan Turing based monument. Because ENGLAND forced Alan to commit suicide with how they treated him.

I dunno what you could possibly have been expecting, but it is The LGBT+ Veterans Memorial.
Also not sure the significance of crowbarring in a Turing reference, as he’s had at least one memorial for almost 25 years.

I was more upset by the lack of a full shot of the memorial. Bad journalism
