In an terview wh the BBC 2008, then Prime Mister Bce Goldg said, “Homosexuals will fd no solace any bet formed by me.
” Ten years later, Jamai’s current prime mister Andrew Holns publicly weled gays to his bet. Jamai has a long way to go the fight for gay rights but – as this year’s Pri celebratns proved – there are more moments of joy which to celebrate than ever.
