Condemn the punishment of 'death by stoning' for homosexual sex in Brunei

Petition Details

Brunei has declared that stoning to death will be the punishment for people found guilty of homosexual acts. This is an affront to human rights.

The UK Government should unequivocally and publicly condemn this act, applying pressure to prevent its application.
