Also looks like Kadaga is keen to get the M&D Bill through (she seems to be claiming it is not a new law, but a ‘remix’ of existing measures). Many churches are not keen on the M&DB.

(The British laws have been made worse by the M7 regime: women were criminalized in 2000, and life imprisonment for consensual relations introduced in 2005.
