Lapid booed by thousands at Tel-Aviv Pride Parade

Thousands gathered at Tel Aviv’s annual gay pride parade greeted Finance Minister Yair Lapid with boos, chanting, “There is no future with Bibi and Lapid!” in a reference to Lapid’s party name, Yesh Atid, that means “There is a future.” Lapid was interrupted by thousands of yells and cries as he tried to speak. When Finance Minister took the podium, he was unable to begin his speech and was met with booing and heckling from the crowd.

Thousands of people crammed into Gan Meir Park in central Tel Aviv on Friday morning, as the annual Gay Pride Parade got underway with the customary party through the streets of the city among them MK Dov Khenin and the “Red-Pink Movement” – LGTB organization for Left, Hadash and communists activists.
