“It’s a space where queer people can come and be safe and be themselves... it’s just really upsetting and sad and heartbreaking.' A suspected homophobic stabbing outside Clapham's Two Brewers has shocked regulars, report AlannahFrancis1 NickMDuffy
Detective Inspector Gary Castle said: “We are acutely aware of the shock this attack will cause members of the LGBT+ community and want to reassure people that an urgent investigation is ongoing to locate the person responsible.
“The team at The Two Brewers were incredible in dealing with this and keeping us inside the venue safe, glad the victims have been discharged and hope they are with loved ones now to help,” the performer said via Twitter. “Our CCTV has been handed over to the police and enhanced security measures have now been put in place.”Linus Karp, who puts on quiz nights at the venue, said: “You hear these things happen a lot but when it’s somewhere where you are a lot, and that is very close to your heart, and we know people, it hits home in a different way and it’s very upsetting.
“I’m angry, but I’m also shocked, because these are our safe spaces, this is where LGBTQ+ people go to have fun, have a drink, let their hair down and you can’t even be safe.” Labour leader Keir Starmer added: “My thoughts are with the victims of this awful homophobic attack and their families and friends as they recover. There is no place for hatred of any kind in our society.”
