The legal change in the oil-rich monarchy also includes the same death penalty for adultery and rape, and amputation for theft.

The US and Germany criticised the plans on Wednesday and urged Brunei to abide by existing international human rights obligations.

The 72-year-old heads the Brunei Investment Agency and its nine properties include London's Dorchester, 45 Park Lane and Cowarth Park Hotel in Berkshire where Prince Harry stayed on the eve of his wedding to Meghan Markle last April. "Let that sink in. In the onslaught of news where we see the world backsliding into authoritarianism this stands alone."

"Our hearts go out to the good, hardworking employees of properties owned by the Sultan of Brunei, many of whom we know to be gay," said the singer."But we feel we must send a message, however we can, that such treatment is unacceptable. We must never underestimate the power of our voices - and our actions - to spark the change we need to see.

Well let's hope Rylan never goes on holiday there lol

The U.K. must act to ensure this country is expelled from the Commonwealth! Brunei cannot participate in a 21st century organisation when it has Dark Ages values.

The government of all nations should be outraged. Can the United Nations act to stop this barbaric act. Or is that not In their remit. Surely something can be done. It’s 2019 not the dark ages

You all love to meddle in other people country’s affairs too much while you can’t even sort out your own shit. Brixit with a double extensions. 🙄😏

Dinosaur

The religion of peace feel bad for us in New Zealand but don't condemn us for the murder of innocent people in our country's. And furthermore don't even think about speaking ill of our religion or we will get you banned from social media and we might just try too kill you 2.

Nothing will get changed or stopped for one reason only OIL

Then we need to cut all diplomatic and business ties with them and withdraw custom from their hotels etc.

It’s very said to cry over this, god created man and woman that is the normal, he didn’t create 2men or 2 woman that’s not normal, no matter how you try to justify it, it’s just common since,

Sharia law.

meh

Brunei acting like a third world country... Wake up... Move with the world... Instead, of stoning or killing.. Learn from another country how to deal with it 🤷‍♀️... Find a bloody solution

Boycott everything and anything they have a hand in.

Theres no way that the Sultan of Brunei isn't going to turn out to be gay. Or his son or SOMEONE. I mean, who cares this much?

Glad I didn't use Royal Brunei airline when travelling around SE Asia last year. Reviews were shit anyway.

The same ideology is preventing the teaching of LGBT in Birmingham, england. .. the condemnation is deafening.... Oh, wait...

Same-sex practices may be totally totally abhorrent to most of us, but death by stoning, really!!!?

I wouldn't get too high up on that moral high horse. The same ideology that's stoning gays in Brunei is pulling kids out of LGBT classes in Birmingham. Let's get our own house in order first.

Send all the sausage jockeys 🏇 there 🤗🤗🤗

Now..I do agree with amputation for rape, theft or murder. No fingers no crime!

This is good

Don't forget stoning WOMEN for adultery. Why only focus on gay sex. Mmm

The world should introduce a death penalty for the Sultan if one woman is stoned to death, or one gay person put to death.

We should withdraw our British Troops

Do Virgin Atlantic fly there?...just askin

Wooooohhhh

Stone age attitude, boycott visiting.

Religion of peace

FFS boycott, remove from the commonwealth. Refuse to do any business with them. At least thats something!!

If you read the law it applies to Muslims only

Their country, Their laws... oh wait they have Oil send in the troops.....

It's their bloody law...please don't get involved!!

The outside world will do SFA in reality. Oil is king.

I wonder what their penalty would be for knife crime!

Why don't they have gay pride march there?

Everyone has different opinions on the subject 🤷‍♂️

and where is the outrage..?
