- 7:19Speaker 10: Ultimately pass away. So I didn't have to come to this.
- 7:22Speaker 6: But despite the thought of coming out having been Cain's
- 7:25Speaker 6: worst nightmare, now he feels differently.
- 7:28Speaker 11: I'm here today to show people that you know, you
- 7:32Speaker 11: don't have to live like that. Even now I feel

- 8:35Speaker 6: the Travel Proud report, collecting stats from more than thirteen
- 8:39Speaker 6: thousand LGBTQ plus tourists across nineteen countries. About half those

- 8:51Speaker 6: travelers Pride Daily. Hither I'm keV McGrath coming up, two
- 8:58Speaker 6: lesbian nuns. Here is that an anti LGBT Keep US
- 9:04Speaker 6: charter has been endorsed by twenty African countries during a
- 9:07Speaker 6: big so called family values conference in Ghana. Prejudice lawmakers,
- 9:13Speaker 6: religious cranks and other assorted bigots from across the continent
- 9:17Speaker 6: have gathered to defend traditional family structures. Actually it was
- 9:22Speaker 6: all about thrashing LGBT Keep US rights, which is what
- 9:25Speaker 6: will happen if this charter ends up being implemented. Progressive
- 9:29Speaker 6: South Africa refuse to support this. Its delegation at the
- 9:33Speaker 6: conference was led by Xandalei Majosie.
- 9:35Speaker 12: Our fellow brothers and sisters. We accept those goals in
- 9:38Speaker 12: South Africa and of God rights as humans because you
- 9:42Speaker 12: are a human. Before you whether we determine whether what
- 9:45Speaker 12: gender you belong in, whether we determine whether your sexuality
- 9:49Speaker 12: is what, but firstly you must protect your rights as

- 10:13Speaker 6: an appeal over the one hundred and forty thousand dollars
- 10:16Speaker 6: damages He's got to pay for defamation after a tweet
- 10:20Speaker 6: three years ago implying Alex engaged in disgusting sexual activities
- 10:25Speaker 6: and was unfit for public office. With legal costs factored in,
- 10:29Speaker 6: this bigot could be more than half a million out
- 10:31Speaker 6: of pocket. Pride Daily and two lesbian nuns have sacked
- 10:37Speaker 6: off life and the convent and got married. Francillia Costa
- 10:41Speaker 6: and Louisa Silveria met in Brazil six years ago, and

- 10:47Speaker 6: other was stuck up, but after both suffered mental health issues,
- 10:51Speaker 6: they quit the nunnery and ended up house sharing his friends.
