British Policeman (once colloquially known as ‘Bobbies’ after their founder Robert Peel ) have always been known as the most friendliest in the world. Still unarmed (US take note!) and their presence in the London’s Gay Pride Parade yesterday was far from being any sort of dampener of the festivities (US take note again) they were actually completely engaging. Literally.
One Officer broke ranks to go over to the crowds watching from the sidelines and surprised everyone, especially his boyfriend, by getting down on his knees and proposing. And if that was not enough, further along the route one policeman also popped the question to his cop boyfriend to the total delight of the crowd and his fellow officers. His new fiance was quiet chuffed too.
