lgbt outrage peter tatchell uganda uganda scout association ugandan anti homosexuality bill uk 2 comments uk scouts condemn uganda anti homosexuality bill world scout movement acts on threat to gays including scouts geneva scout hq refers concerns to scout association of uganda london 1 march 2010 the chief executive of the scout association uk derek twine has expressed opposition to the anti homosexuality bill in uganda describing the legislation as discriminatory and incompatible with scouting values the bill has been tabled by david bahati mp who is also chairman of the scout association of uganda mr twine s statement copy in full below follows representations to the uk and international scout movement by the london based lgbt human rights organisation outrage mr twine wrote to peter tatchell of outrage as follows we find the bill not only discriminatory and contrary to the sanctity of life but also completely incompatible with our interpretation of the values of our worldwide scouting movement we have already drawn our grave concerns on this to the attention of the secretary general of the world organisation of the scout movement wosm and we are subsequently aware that the issues are now subject both to wosm s direct engagement with the chief scout of uganda mrs maggie kigozi and to ongoing global consideration by members of the world scout committee wrote mr twine this statement from the uk scout association follows simultaneous direct representations by outrage to the world organisation of the scout movement in geneva at our request the world scout headquarters has written to the chief scout and the chief commissioner of the uganda scout association concerning the anti homosexuality bill and the sponsorship of this bill by the chairman of the uganda scout association david bahati mp reports peter tatchell of outrage this swift action followed our protests against mr bahati to the scout association uk scouting is very big in uganda and mr bahati derives great prestige from his position as chairman of the scout association of uganda if we can get him removed from office it will be a significant personal blow to him he ll be weakened and his credibility undermined outrage is urging the disaffiliation of the ugandan scout organisation from the world scouting movement as a way of adding further pressure on the ugandan government to drop the bill our request for disaffiliation was immediately forwarded by the scout association uk to the world organisation of the scout movement wosm in geneva outrage s actions are an attempt to open up a new front in the campaign against the bill and to graphically expose the full ramifications of the proposed legislation on youth and civic organisations in uganda which have received little coverage so far by highlighting the particular threat to lgbt scout members we are not detracting in any way from the wider issues and consequences of mr bahati s draconian legislation lgbt scouts and scout leaders are of course only one section of the ugandan lgbt community all ugandan lgbts are at risk if this bill becomes law we are concerned about the danger to them all and the threat to their straight families friends supporters and allies said mr tatchell outrage s appeal to wosm for international scout action is being handled by jim sharp executive director general management world scout

association has been clear and unequivocal in our equal opportunities policy and practice especially regarding sexual orientation as befitting our role in contemporary society we are recently aware that the ugandan parliament has received a bill that calls for the death sentence for repeat practicing of homosexuality this bill is presented by a ugandan mp david bahati who is also currently the national chairman of the uganda scout association in terms of our own policies and understandings we find the bill not only discriminatory and contrary to the sanctity of life but also completely incompatible with our interpretation of the values of our worldwide scouting movement we have already drawn our grave concerns on this to the attention of the secretary general of the world organisation of the scout movement wosm and we are subsequently aware that the issues are now subject both to wosm s direct engagement with the chief scout of uganda mrs maggie kigozi and to ongoing global consideration by members of the world scout committee we hope that the bilateral and very positive educational and solidarity projects that have been fostered for many years between scout groups in the uk and scout groups in uganda on such matters as health and community development will not be prejudiced or compromised by this situation we await the formal and public response from the scout association of uganda and from wosm whereupon we will review our position derek twine chief executive 07889 130 812 from within the uk and 44 0 7889 130 812 from overseas or 020 8433 7107 or

between russian and international laws sent by nicolas alexeyev a member of the federation council of russia the upper chamber of the parliament vasily likhachev known for his sharp rejection of the civil rights of sexual minorities was appointed deputy minister of justice as reported gazeta ru on february 27 the main point in his agenda will be to close the gap between the russian and the international laws but when it comes to lgbt rights the new deputy minister of justice is well known for a series of homophobic remarks just two days before his appointment mr likhachev publicly justified the denial by the ministry of justice to register marriage equality russia a gay group advocating for same sex marriage the steps taken by the representatives of the gay community contradict with the general state of morality of the russian society because it is not our culture and our form of relations in 2006 mr likhachev called to use any way to stop the process of family rights of same sex couple already in 7 countries of the european union homosexuals are allowed to adopt children the number of countries where same sex marriages are permitted continues to grow that s why in questions concerning gays there shouldn t be maximum permissiveness otherwise we will go too far and the development of the world will go in the wrong direction he further defended the ban of a gay pride in moscow arguing that minority affects the interests of the majority city authorities are absolutely right that they did not follow the interest of sexual minorities there could not be any other discussion here a similar position that mr likhachev repeated a year later in 2007 the society should not abide by the desires of sexual minorities because homosexuals touch the interest of the majority of the people of traditional orientation the respect of human rights must not violate the moral and ethic and if such a violation occurs the authorities must apply the relevant laws to prevent it commenting about the appointment of mr likhachev nikolai baev a co organizer of moscow pride said the new deputy minister of justice does not consider the rights of homosexuals to depend on the constitution or the law of this country moral ethic and the interest of the majority of the population is sufficient in his eyes to discriminate against us said nikolai baev gay activist further expressed concerns about the future of registering lgbt groups as non profit organization in the country the ministry of justice denied so far to register any ngo which would officially advocate for the rights of gays and lesbians but with the appointment of mr likhachev we doubt the trend will reverse the only solution is to appeal to the european court of human rights but this process takes years ended nikolai baev gayrussia ru http www gayrussia ru en news detail php id 15226 russia religious and nationalist groups call for the ban of st petersburg pride march 1 2010 in gay gay life gay
