Damion Crawford State Minister in the ministry of tourism in a follow up interview on CVM TV’s Direct with host Garfield Burford on Wednesday March 13th tried to explain his recent comments at a function that was carried as a news item on the same television station on the promised Buggery Law Review by his boss Prime Minister Portia Simpson Prime Minister Miller who in the run up to the last general elections promised a review of the law along with a conscience vote on the matter. Mr. Crawford as extensively reported in a previous post has satirically suggested that no gay member of parliament is going to come forward and he doubted that the issue would be even raised in parliament.

Kingston, West Indies, Jamaica
I am a 39 y/old single Gay Jamaican previously involved in Interventions at JFLAG & HIV work at Jamaica AIDS Support for Life & still volunteers for other NGOs in similar veins. I'm concerned about the lack of free flow of information about The Jamaican Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgendered experiences hence my Blogs & Network pages playing my part in allowing expression & cross fertilization of ideas between the various groups.
Gay Jamaica Watch blog was started as Sunshine Cathedral Jamaica on 20/2/08 while The GLBTQJA blog was started as JFLAG on 8/5/08 both I have renamed to reflect my points of view and to encourage more conversations on LGBTQI issues from a Jamaican standpoint outside of the advocacy structure for solutions. Thanks for your support and words of encouragement & donations, Donate today safely via paypal, so I can continue this activity. All donations go to GLBTQ Jamaica for Research & Development, Blog continuity.
