Police in Harare arrested two people Ellen Chadehama, 34, and Ingatius Mhambi, 38, employees of the Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe (GALZ) organization after they posted a letter in their office from former San Francisco Mayor Willie Lewis Brown criticizing the Zimbabwean president’s opposition to homosexuality.

The two will remain in custody until Wednesday because of the Africa Day holiday.

The police have said that  the letter “undermined the authority of the president.”

Is Nick Clegg giving power to David Cameroon?

Is predicted before the elections, the United Kingdom has a Hung Parliament no party has got the majority seats to form a government.

What happened to the land slide victory that David Cameroon was dreaming of? What is he going to do next?

Gordon Brown for now is still Prime Minister, and as for Nick Clegg, we wait and see what he is going to do next. But it looks like he wants to ‘go to bed with Cameroon’.

The people have spoken, even though some may not be happy with Labour there is still a large percentage of the population who do not trust the Conservatives to run this country on their own.

For now we wait and see.

If Zimbabwean politicians can be trusted, we are likely to have elections next year (2011) which will go a long way in determining the future of us Zimbabweans in the diaspora.

At the last election we were not allowed to vote and its most likely we won’t be allowed to vote during the coming elections.

Zimbabweans in the diaspora have a right to determine their future, it is our human right to be allowed to vote so we can choose whom we want to be our President.

It’s sad that our right to vote has not been respected it was taken away by the rulers in Harare. 

We hope this government of Zanu Pf and the MDC will give us back our right to vote.

Why should we not be allowed to vote?

I wonder how many people think the Conservatives do care for the ordinary person in the street? All that David Cameroon and the Torries want is to get into power so that they can protect their own rich interests.

This is the reason why I will not be voting for the Torries next week.

I have followed how David Cameroon is taking advantage of the media hype and using personalities without real substance in his policies. It’s easier for him to attack Labours’ policies because he is not in power, but what is he bringing to the table?

What is it that he will change that matters to me?

The Torries will always be the same, they are for the rich and will always use the poor while protecting their interests.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is in Zimbabwe at the invitation of Robert Mugabe to open the Trade Fair in Bulawayo.

The Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) say they were not consulted, and we thought they were in the government together with Zanu PF?

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad with Robert Mugabe

MDC party spokesman Nelson Chamisa said, “Inviting Ahmadinejad to an investment forum in Zimbabwe is like inviting a mosquito to cure malaria,” Chamisa is reported to have said in a telephone interview  from Harare.

“It’s an insult to peace-loving people in both Iran and Zimbabwe.”

At a time when Zimbabwe is trying to rebuild its economy and attract the much need foreign investment into the country, this is probably not the best time to have people like Ahmadinejad in Zimbabwe.

What hope do we have of a democratic Zimbabwe if we have leaders who seem to glorify enemies of democracy like Mr Ahmadinejad?

What hope of peace do we have in Zimbabwe as long as our leaders seem to glorify someone like Mr Amadinejad who is so much obessed with build nuclear power?

Iran is reportedly under three sets of United Nations sanctions for refusing to scale down its nuclear program.

Today we celebrate 30 years of independence, for some of us the celebrations started yesterday and today is the climax of what has been massive weekend.

So, what is this day all about?

Zimbabwe News

It is the day we got our freedom and dignity back after years of oppression under the white colonialists. Can you imagine there were white only areas where no blacks were not allowed in our own country?

The white colonialist took all the prime farming land and shared it among themselves whilst native Zimbabweans where pushed into over-crowded poor soil areas, so that they would forever work for the white man.

I could go on and on talking about how cruel these white colonialists where to the native Zimbabweans. Because we are now independent that’s why this day means a lot to us Zimbabweans.

What does this day mean to you as a Zimbabwean?

UK General Elections 2010 are just around the corner, Labour won the last general election in 2005 but who will win this time?

Most importantly for all the immigrants living in the Queen’s land who will you be voting for?

Vote for Labour UK Elections 2010

Opinion polls this far point to a Conservative Party victory by a small margin, but the Tories have never know to represent the interest of the poor.

The Tories are there to divide the rich and the poor and for that reason they will not be getting my vote.

I am going to do something to help myself and you can do something to help yourself too, go out and vote on the 6th of May.

Vote wisely and vote for a party that represents the best interests of immigrants.

Vote for the Labour Party.

To you all my fellow Zimbabweans, on 18 April 2010 we will be celebrating 30 years of freedom from the oppression under the white minority rule in Rhodesia. This is a very important day in our lives as Zimbabweans, and 30 years is a landmark anniversary.

We will forever be grateful and respect those gallant sons and daughters of  Zimbabwe who sacrificed their lives so that you and me could be free today.  We think of Ambuya Nehanda, Sekuru Kaguvi, Josiah Tongogara, Joshua Mqabuko Nyongolo Nkomo, Hebert Chitepo, Leopold Takawira, Masotsha Ndlovu, Lookout Masuku, George Silundika, Alfred Nikita Mangena and all the heroes who did not make it back from the war of independence.   

But, as a Zimbabwean what do you have after 30 years of independence?

Zimbabwe Heroes Acre

Even though the most wicked and inhuman laws that existed under the Rhodesia government have gone, these were replaced with some draconian laws by the Zanu Pf government. They came into power at independence and found out that power is so sweet and they became corrupted by power now they think its their God given right to rule forever.

Where is the land all those heros died for during the liberation war?

Even after the controversial land grab led by Chenjerai Hunzvi and the so called ‘war veterans’ how many of you got land?

Today the majority of Zimbabweans live in poverty whilst a few enjoy the milk and honey in the country. Why?

The legacy of the real heroes who died for the liberation of Zimbabwe is being tarnished by those who are abusing power today because they fought for the liberation of Zimbabwe.

Happy Independence Day Zimbabwe!!!
