The Commonwealth, which accounts for 30% of the world population, has shown<br />
a stubborn refusal to address the human rights of its lesbian, gay, bisexual,<br />
transgender and intersex (LGBTI) citizens. Of the 78 countries worldwide that<br />
still criminalise consensual and private adult same-sex sexual acts, over a half are<br />
Commonwealth members states. Nearly 80% of the countries making up the Commonwealth<br />
– 41 out of 53 - still maintain such laws and show few signs of accepting<br />
that the organisation’s Charter commitment to opposing ‘all forms of discrimination’<br />
must include discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex<br />
(LGBTI) people.
