Thousands of people have marched through the streets of central London for the annual Gay Pride festival a day after an attempted double car-bomb attack was foiled.

The event's organisers said despite Friday's bomb alerts, the parade would go ahead as normal.

Police are investigating two explosive devices found in cars in the city's West End.

The Gay Pride parade is one of the massive public events that London will be hosting in the coming days, along with the Wimbledon tennis tournament and a concert for Princess Diana on Sunday.

Police said appropriate policing will be in place for all events.
