In a society that promotes gambling, drunkenness, adultery, promiscuity witchcraft and practicing magic..... sodomy and the like are not disgusting to us as it is to a people who live their lives away from such perverse and filthy pursuits. Our society is headed in to destruction

RhonddaBryant Time some of our Mps did something about persecution of Christians but that's not on trend. See open doors top 50 list for common link

Could this be a smokescreen and the Sultan is actually the Sultan of Swing !!!

Brunei’s laws remind me of the caliphate that’s been exterminated, that way of living under Brunei must be that of terror, and in my opinion has no place in a civilised nation

And yet we leave our armed forces in this country - if our government was serious about this issue then why don’t we use them as leverage and threaten to withdraw them unless this human rights issue is resolved

Disgusting human,

GOOD! Keep going 👍

^ XXL ears may b linked 2 ClarenceHouse may require further dna sampling though prior 2 any post natal ear reductions but we can reduce them we hav the techno ;)

The sultan is extremely rich, these boycotts probably won’t work, if anything it’s just gonna hurt the employees of these businesses.

Ban his horses from racing in UK. One less person in the Royal box. Cults shouldn’t be tolerated. Religions r simply cults.

Never give up, if decide to do this!!

Are BritishArmy still posted to Brunei ?

this is sharia law... which is Islamic which is the issue for western culture.. but we have all to accept it when it suits and not when it doesn't suit.. the killing rapists part is may be something we should look at though!!

More virtue signalling. The Sultan's so rich he's probably more worried about his immortal soul than a few bob. As I understand it, he sees imposing strict Sharia law in his country as a religious duty. Is no-one worried about thief mutilations, adultery laws etc? Only gay laws?

Feel like this guy would take more notice if Twitter was full of photoshopped images of him having gay sex. So many that it would be impossible to google his name without one showing up. Even get him added to pornhub as an actor, etc.

Just all blowing big smoke ....other Muslim countries have the same laws yet no news agency reporting about them .why is that I wonder?

The man owns some of the most expensive hotels in London. Boycott them. He is vile for even suggesting people should be stoned to death for being gay. Wait till he realises what same sex couples get up to in his overly priced hotels 🙈😍

Maybe people will understand progression and Islam aren't exactly compatible.

Just anti-gay sex or also adultery, rape and theft? Cheap Sky Headline-Twitter Bait

The Sultan is a great man.

And why does Saudi Arabia get a free pass here? Why is the media pretty much everywhere very quiet about Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries that have capital punishment as part of their Sharia Law

normal people have been calling out Islam for years but they are deemed Islamaphobic, watch the left bury this story and carry on as normal!

What does someone have to do for Oxford Uni to revoke their honorary degree. Wonder how much money he has sent their way. 🤷‍♂️

I would like to see a list of the assets Brunei hold in London/UK/worldwide published, hotels business etc, the public can then make informed decisions as to where we spend our hard earned pennies

Good

And so it should 🌈
