Closed petition Remove all foreign aid to Uganda and impose sanctions if the "Kill the Gays" bill is passed by the country

Closed on 13 November 2013

The Ugandan government is poised to pass the Anti-Homosexuality bill in their parliament which has an unprecedented scope and scale, including the death penalty for certain homosexual acts. Details are available at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uganda_Anti-Homosexuality_Bill

The signors of this petition request that the UK Government not only state their displeasure at this bill as they have already done, but to also attach real consequences to the passing of this bill in the form of loss of trade status and foreign aid. We would also request that the government petition the UN to have the security council vote on international sanctions. We feel that this gross human rights violation requires no less of a response.
