/// “We Africans never seek to impose our view on others. If only they could let us alone,” he said, talking of Western pressure not to sign the bill. ///

/// “We have been disappointed for a long time by the conduct of the West. There is now an attempt at social imperialism.” ///

No matter how repulsive certain countries laws seem to us, does it give us the right to intervene in an attempt to change their ways, at the risk of being criticised for attempting 'social imperialism' as in this case?.

It'll not be much. Three, maybe all four, on that poster have passed on.

Britain's stance on homosexuality has been pretty poor,

1835 The last two men to be executed in Britain for buggery, James Pratt and John Smith, were arrested on 29 August at a house in Southwark after being observed having sex; they were hanged on 27 November.

1861 The death penalty for buggery was abolished. A total of 8921 men had been prosecuted since 1806 for sodomy with 404 sentenced to death and 56 executed.
