As the parliament of Uganda, we have answered the cries of our people. The bill would have still become law without the president’s assent if he returned it a second time.Īmong tweeted on Monday morning: “The president … has assented to the Anti-Homosexuality Act. He sent it back to MPs in April, with a request for reconsideration. Museveni had 30 days to either sign the legislation into law, return it to parliament for revisions or veto it. It imposes the death penalty or life imprisonment for certain same-sex acts, up to 20 years in prison for “recruitment, promotion and funding” of same-sex “activities”, and anyone convicted of “attempted aggravated homosexuality” faces a 14-year sentence.ĭescribed by the UN high commissioner for human rights, Volker Türk, as “shocking and discriminatory”, the bill was passed by all but two of 389 MPs on 21 March.
He said Washington was considering “sanctions and restriction of entry into the United States against anyone involved in serious human rights abuses” – a suggestion that Ugandan officials may face repercussions.Įarly on Monday, the speaker of the Ugandan parliament, Anita Annet Among, released a statement on social media confirming Museveni had assented to the law first passed by MPs in March.

If anything, the 1992 ‘Sensual Massage' sessions have more in common with the music recorded for TV commercials in the mid-1980s, similarly done by Sleazy to bring home the bacon, than anything else in the COIL catalogue. Whether the Sara Dale tracks planned for a COIL CD release are just going to be taken from a high quality video transfer or from a higher quality DAT transfer I cannot be sure without making further enquiries, as I can't find any record of COIL having still been in possession of a DAT of those commissioned Sara Dale tracks after the project was finished.ĬOIL never did anything quite like the Sara Dale soundtrack again, though certain tracks from the abandoned mid-1990s 'Backwards' sessions such as 'Crumb Time' and 'Egyptian Basses' sound like a segue between (or hybrid of) the Dale and 'Gay Man's Guide.' soundtracks. I hope that a good quality transfer of the tracks eventually surface, as it does possess some artistic worth, it is competently performed and deserves its own peculiar place in COIL's peculiar discography. I'd suggest that it's worth experiencing the Sara Dale film and soundtrack fully at least once each, if only for the 1990s softcore kitsch overdose, a great example from a weird 1950s-esque sex ed boom in UK pop culture history, and for the great third section of COIL's soundtrack. No copyright assumed by myself under this upload of mine.Īn unofficial 45min remaster from the 1992 VHS video release of "Sara Dale's Sensual Massage: The Stroke of Pleasure", featuring the commissioned (but still unreleased) COIL soundtrack, this is posted on with accompanying essay as a worthy relic from the 1990s UK VHS Sex Education boom - a pop culture media phenomena originally devised to circumvent the restrictive Ferman-era BBFC's rules of the time.Ī classic example of early-1990s Sex Ed kitsch aesthetics, this short video tape feature should now be regarded in the digital age as currently "lost". The film with my accompanying essay (containing a lot more historic background detail to the release) is posted here under Fair Use / Fair Dealings doctrine for review purposes, a relic from the tabloid-led political furore surrounding Sara Dale, and study of this still-unreleased COIL soundtrack project.
