Sign the All Out petition for the repeal of anti-gay laws
Protest against Russia’s new anti-gay law which criminalises LGBT freedom of expression – and against homophobic violence and the wider crackdown on all civil liberties in Russia.
Saturday 10 August, 1-4pm, opposite Downing Street, Whitehall, London SW1. INFO: http://on.fb.me/12ZLo8i
“Putin is the ‘Czar of Homophobia’. His regime has outlawed the public expression of LGBT identity and affection – and prohibited the advocacy of LGBT human rights – in circumstances where a person under 18 might see it.

These are the latest examples of escalating homophobic and political repression in Russia,” said Peter Tatchell, Director of the Peter Tatchell Foundation.
