POWERING PRO BONO

We utterly deplore and regret the decision of the Ugandan government; who today ruled in favour of anti-homosexual laws which they say "will reinforce their morals, protect their children and they will reinforce their enforcement officers so that they will "make sure homosexuals have no space in Uganda"
Such behaviour marks a terrible decline in human rights in one of the most oppressed and corrupt civilisations on the planet, maybe even on a par with China.
We remember with love and affection
