Stop UK foreign aid going to Uganda

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

All foreign aid should be withheld from the Ugandan government in response to passing new laws concerning LGBTQ+ people.
The Ugandan parliament just past a law that prohibits any person from identifying as part of the LGBTQ+ community. We send 10s of millions in aid to this government and we should stop doing so until they repeal this law. It’s bad enough they already imprison/execute their people for consensual acts between adults in the privacy of their own home, they now intend to do the same just for being something that can’t be changed!
