Addressing the crowd outside the Dorchester, Ms Thornberry said actions should have consequences and Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei should be shunned until the law is revoked."Our fight is with the sultan of Brunei. Our fight is with this terrible law. We say no."Gay rights campaigner Peter Tatchell, who organised the demonstration, said:"There can be no normal business relations with an abnormal tyrannical regime like that of Brunei.
"What the sultan has done has introduced punishments the same as Isis implemented in Iraq and Syria during it's so-called caliphate, including brutal stoning to death of people convicted of homosexuality, adultery and insulting the prophet Mohammed." He described the"close" relationship between the Queen and the sultan's as"quite wrong", saying she should not"collude and consort with dictators like the sultan".
Better late than never. This is simply Shari'a
Watch Chief Rabbi Watson try to hang support for that round Corbyn's neck. He's been ignored in the long grass while Brexit has been top of the Agenda and doesn't like that so he's due to launch another backstabbing with Ante Semitism or this.
Funny how Labour are now wanting to boycott Brunei yet Corbyn was happy to work for Iran’s Press TV and take their cash (2009-2012) when the country was executing gays (4-6 thousand since 1979). Did he think hanging gays wasn’t as bad as stoning them.
Let’s get our own house in order first?
All you need to say is oil Iraq war
What about Shaira law here, Labour going to protest that? Iran, never heard a word, Iraq, never heard a word. Our gay community needs protecting wherever this evil occurs. In NY last week members of the Gay community marched with Muslims for the introduction of sharia go figure.
gaybcnews What about the anti abortion laws in Brunei. Is it ok to stone a woman after having an abortion?
Just mind your own business. Let Brunei do what they want. By the way, hv you concluded the brexit deal yet? Or are you guys still fighting in parliament? Resolve that first, nosey poker
Add Saudi Arabia, they are even worse
This is just terrible......the BBC will be pimping this story for months.
.. but it's their country? .. what business is it of ours? Don't like their rules, don't go there. .. countries need to stop sticking their noses in .. in all matters !! .. maybe, just maybe, the world woyld be a happier place.
Please stop publishing anything that come from the Labour Party as it is pointless
We should cease all trade and diplomatic relations with any country that prosecutes homosexuality or apostasy. Time we put principles before pounds.
This lot urges action !! They are the most antisemetic Labour Party that’s ever been , and you are told this !! Do you believe this Naaaaaah
Labour should concentrate on sharia crap in this country in stead of cuddling up to these lunatics. You tossers.
Why Brunei?
What about the parents wanting to ban lethal education in schools? Oh wait they are labour voters - propably
You need a more american approach , bomb them and steal their oil .
The western world needs to man up and advocate global religious freedom ( these are closely linked inequalities )
The Sultan of Brunei is a showman like Trump. He is loving all the attention.
What about sodomy man to woman? That's OK? 🤷🏻♀️
Corbyn voted for sex selection abortion, couldn't make it up.
Women have been stoned and abused in several countries, why no protests?
I think labour should sort out the mess in the UK first
Urge action against yourself labour for your stance on the Jewish community
What do they say about Iran?
The same Labour party that brands any criticism of Islam as Islamophobic. The same LGBT protesters who match against so called Islamophobia. Cant have it both ways, just accept Islam is the problem.
Brunei is now on my to visit list 😁😁😁
But labour followers keep telling everybody Islam is the religion of peace and love
Any mention of death by stoning for Adultery?
That’s their religion and you have brought millions here who want the same.
Why is this being portrayed as an LGBT issue. The barbaric penalty for adulterous behaviour for Hetro couples don’t matter?
That’s Owen Jones holiday plans fucked right up 😂😂😂
Good.
Why not sort out Uk issues before interfering in other countries?
Is labour islamophobic now?
Brunei should be suspended from the Commonwealth, all Brunei UK assets frozen including the Dorchester Hotel, impose relevant sanctions, & here we are again - the UK selling military equipment & arms to a dictatorship! That must cease Jeremy_Hunt or your words are meaningless.
Make your mind up you say we shouldn’t get involved in other countries affairs then you say we should take action - make your mind up
Labour: 'stop doing that' Brunei: 'no' Labour: 'oh. ok'
What are the odds, ask the bookies lol.
These barbaric laws belong in medieval times. Despicable neanderthals who should be booted out of the Commonwealth immediately.
but they will ignore it in every other muslim sharia law country?
Socialist Worker advocating violence to stop violence! Unless 'Stamping Out' means by peaceful persuasion.
As labour should. However, find a moment to “deliver “ the will of your membership and at least pretend to fight for a people’s vote if not revoking A50.
Let them get on with it who gives a fuck
It's their country so they have the right to have any laws they see fit. The last time I checked Labour wasn't in charge of Brunei. A lot of people around the world might not like some of our laws it's just the way it is.
But it's in the Koran...
Cero LGTBD en Brunei is now the Law.
a tiny implemntation of Islam will see many disobey and attack. Good luck with your shariah, make it fair and make it be just
I urge action. Stop driving you cars, and all the other things that use fossil fuel and keep Brunei rich?
All this faux outrage is a bit late considering Muslims in various countries have been doing just this and far worse for a very long time now. Anyway I thought all cultures are of equal value? You islamophobes should stop being so bigoted, this is part and parcel of Islam!
What happened to freedom of religion every one shouts about you can’t have it both ways - if Muslims come to be the majority in the U.K. at sometime and wish to impose sharia law here , what happens then
You CANT be GAY & MUSLIM... discuss
Evangelism of Christ Crucified is the only way to bring peace between all people.
How Islamophobic of them tut tut
