ronald – what is misleading?

I am sure that any such “policy instrument” concerning Tullow that might be enacted by the Ugandan parliament will be taken to the high court in Uganda by Tullow. And I doubt such will stand up to scrutiny as it means Uganda is going back on its contractual agreements in the concessions.

Oh yes, the courts :-). If the “policy instrument” of the Ugandan State is as strong and sophisticated as I think it should be then Tullow will find out that it is better to pay its liability (i.e. capital gains tax) than proceed to the courts. BTW, similar “policy instruments” have been applied elsewhere with good results. Examples include Argentina’s defiance of IMF by refusing to service its debts when its economy was in shambles, Russia’s screwing of the valves on crude oil and gas pipelines supplying energy to the EU and China’s containment of Australia and Japan on mining business deals and rare earth metals trade respectively.

Ronald – Have you read the Anti-Homosexuality Bill? I have made it available to all to read and that speaks for itself. And let’s recall that Ugandan law already covers defilement of boys by men. At least one such man is currently being prosecuted on that basis.

Also, what should the world take from headlines in a Ugandan tabloid that say, “Hang Them?” And since these young men who are the editors of the paper are students at the premiere university in your country and members of the Makerere Community Church pastored by Martin Ssempa, a prominent pastor there, should we not assume that at least some mainstream elements want to kill homosexuals? Let’s not forget that the mover of the Anti-Homosexuality Bill spoke approvingly about the Hang Them campaign.

Come and face the people of Uganda because what Bahati is saying is what we stand for.

Ronald, Ugandan’s do not stand for a bill that means they will have to go to jail because their brothers, sisters or children may be gay with out them even knowing it. . We are not that dumb.

If you think the Bahati Bill is ‘very nice’, I think it is time for Warren to block you.

Thinking the Bahati Bill is ‘very nice’ is tantamount to supporting mass murder.

Also, if you are in UK (as I suspect you are), thinking the Bahati Bill is ‘very nice’ is probably legally problematic for the reason I’ve alluded to above.
