Just curious about why some of the articles refer to the pride march as a political rally, this seems to be a key point for some of the objectors to this. Since when is someone's sexuality a political point?

Precisely. 
You dare not say anything lest you get labeled as such.

The local school from my old stamping ground had a wing named after JK Rowling, you know the woman who got kids reading again.

 

But due to her ‘troublesome’ comments on women’s rights (ie they trump the rights of men that dress as women to enter women’s spaces) it got re-named.
