David Cameron’s dangerous recolonising gambit

UK PM, David Cameron

(Published 2nd December, 2011)

When the Common Wealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) wound off in Perth, Australia last October, the British Prime, Minister David Cameron, left with a parting shot: zero tolerance to gay life style is now a prerequisite for African nations seeking aid from the United Kingdom. This decision ought to and should be a conscience assault on a continent that is reeling in hunger and famine and the crippling effects of corruption and bad governance.

The position of the self acclaimed ‘lord of our civilisation’ is nothing but a recolonisation of our consciences and values.
