Vigil Planned for Ian Baynham

Join me at the vigil the week after next for Ian Baynham, the gay man murdered in Trafalgar Square:

A vigil has been organised to pay tribute to Ian Baynham, the gay man who died this week after being attacked in London’s Trafalgar Square.

The event was planned by members of a Facebook group called 17-24-30, which remembers those killed and injured by Soho bomber David Copeland. It was responsible for organising the London vigil after the Tel Aviv gay shooting in August.

It will be held between 8 and 10pm in Trafalgar Square on Friday, October 30th.

Reassuringly there have been arrests:

Police hunting for the killers of a 62-year-old gay man who was beaten to death in Trafalgar Square have arrested two 17-year-old girls and one 18-year-old boy.

Ian Baynham was attacked on September 25th. After suffering brain damage, his life support machine was switched off on Tuesday.

According to a Metropolitan Police spokesman, the girls were arrested at their homes in south-east London, as was the 18-year-old male.

They are being held at separate police stations and will be questioned.

Makes you wonder whether Jan Moir blames him for his own murder, doesn’t it?
