Heh Zodidi - great to hear from you on the other side of the world We are really excited about the next phase of this 'Away from Violence' work - and we've all enjoyed the wonderful videos from Bush Radio which are in the media section of the site.

One of the issues that has really angered me lately is the wife of our First Minister - Iris Robinson (she is also a Member of the Westminster Parliament and the Northern Ireland Assembly). She has been expressing her views on homosexuality - which are dangerous enough as her private views, but even worse as the opinions of our 'first lady'. You can read about her remarks here http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/7517500.stm I am interested in hearing the views on this from Cape Town...
