dc.description.abstract | The Trinidad and Tobago government is seeking to remove the option of appeals to the British Privy Council as a last resort for convicted murderers. As Britain's dependent territories meeting in London approach, the most controversial issue thus far is the British directive to Caribbean dependencies to change their laws which criminalises homosexual acts. Anguillan lawyer Bernice Lake comments on the issue and states that Britain is asking for too much. The European Commission sends its recommendations to the EU Council of Ministers for a mandate to negotiate a new agreement with the ACP states. In Ireland, a school teacher fears the threat of British immigrants after viewing the British movie "The Full Monty". Pope John Paul II described his visit to Cuba as unforgettable and a great event of spiritual, cultural and social reconciliation for the island. In cricket, the first test of the Cable and Wireless series between England and the West Indies takes place shortly in Sabina Park, Jamaica. Simon Crosskill comments on the hostility that the new Windies captain, Brian Lara, will face from the Jamaican crowd. England's bowler Dean Headley talks about his West Indian roots and his commitment to England. | en_US |
