This is a great news! 💜💜❤️❤️

Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has announced that Section 377A will be repealed.
“The government will repeal 377A, and decriminalise s*x between men. I believe this is the right thing to do, and something most Singaporeans will now accept. This will bring the law into line with current social mores and I hope, provide some relief to gay Singaporeans.”

Stay tuned to our socials for the community statement that will be released be LGBTQ groups soon!

Tonight at the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games 2022 in Birmingham, myself and 6 extraordinary LGBTQ+ athletes and advocates from around the Commonwealth will be carrying the Queen’s baton into the stadium. In over half of the Commonwealth countries, homos*xuality is still a crime and in 3 of those countries the maximum penalty is the death sentence. These laws are a legacy of colonialism. This opening ceremony for us is about showing LGBTQ+ visibility to the billion people watching so I wanted to shout out the incredible six people that I’ll be walking into the stadium with:

Bisi Alimi () from Nigeria. The first gay man to come out on Nigerian national television who is now Executive Director of the Bisi Alimi Foundation, an organisation working to accelerate social acceptance of LGBT+ people in Nigeria.

Glenroy Murray (.divo) from Jamaica – Executive Director of J-FLAG, an LGBT rights organisation that continues to push for LGBT+ inclusion in all areas of life in Jamaica.

Dutee Chand () from India. Dutee is a professional sprinter and the first openly gay athlete on India’s national team. She is competing in this year’s Commonwealth Games.

Moud Goba () from Zimbabwe. National Manager at Micro Rainbow. Micro Rainbow supports LGBT+ asylum seekers and refugees fleeing persecution, providing safe accommodation and integration support in the UK.

Jason Jones () from Trinidad and Tobago. LGBT+ advocate who fought a successful legal battle to decriminalise adult consensual same-s*x intimacy in Trinidad and Tobago in 2018.

Prossy Kakooza () from Uganda. LGBT+ activist and human rights defender. Works with Le***an Immigration Support Group supporting women seeking asylum on the basis of their s*xuality in and around Greater Manchester.
