Over in Uganda the parliament is debating a new anti-homosexuality bill. Being gay is already illegal there and the new bill proposes to toughen the laws. MP David Bahati, a member of the ruling party, has proposed that having gay sex with disabled people, under-18s or if you're HIV-positive should be punishable by death.
Meanwhile in Jamaica they're giving a big debate on revising their constitution. Not much prospect of improving the lot of gays there either. Last week Prime Minister Bruce Golding said the country's parliament would not recognize same-sex marriage while he was in power. He said "I will not accept it that homosexuality must be accepted as a legitimate form of behaviour or the equivalent of marriage."
