So this is the leadership that the European Union so desperately wants to invite for a summit? Pathetic.
Zimbabwean security forces routinely torture and sexually abuse women opposed to President Robert Mugabe's government, a human rights group said on Wednesday.
"The women endured various forms of torture, including beatings with a variety of instruments ... baton sticks, booted feet, wooden planks, being slapped, and falanga (beatings on the bottom of the feet," Women of Zimbabwe Arise (WOZA) said in a report.
"Some violations occurred in the street during arrest, whilst others took place in police vehicles and/or in police custody."
Why is Gordon Brown the only European leader who is taking a stand against this?
