Are We Still A Member Of This Thing?

Convicted of slavery.

Lydia Mugambe, a Ugandan lawyer who served as a High Court Judge in Uganda beginning in 2013 and as a Judge of the UN International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals (IRMCT), the successor body to the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, since May 2023, was convicted on 13 March 2025 at Oxford Crown Court on four counts: conspiracy to facilitate a breach of UK immigration law, arranging travel with a view to exploitation, requiring a person to perform forced or compulsory labor, and conspiracy to intimidate a witness.

She was also a fellow at Columbia University’s Institute for the Study of Human Rights in 2017. She was studying for a doctorate in law at Oxford University at the time of the offences.

Mugambe had met the victim in Uganda when the victim was 19 years old and employed her there as a nanny and maid.

  1. Zohran Mamdani’s parents made their fortune as immigrants from India to Uganda, where he was born. Anyone doubt they had slaves?

    1. They are currently in discussions with HAMAS on disarming. Trump’s Board Of Peace is acting like the frog helping the scorpion over the river. The HAMAS ideology requires the destruction of Jews and Christians and democracy worldwide and replacing them with a fundamentalist version of Islam under sharia law. The only solution for the problem of the ideology of HAMAS is total obliteration.

        Butt lets ignore that the RCC spent 1500 years trying to destroy Judaism, which culminated in the RCC telling Jews to convert or get out in the 13th and 14th centuries.
        You bible pounders are just like Libtards with convenient amnesia.

      2. Hamas has not observed all the requirements for disarming, etc. I expect they will soon be destroyed as they’ve had their chance. I agree with MBS … Trump has ushered in the long needed reset of the ME.

        The greatest POTUS in the history of all our poseur presidents!

      3. ” The only solution for the problem of the ideology of HAMAS is total obliteration.”

        And it always has been, despite the massive denialism from the left and the MSM. You can NOT negotitate peace with someone whose entire reason for living is to see you and everyone like you dead. In order for there to be any ‘two-state solution’, both parties need to be in favour of it.

  2. Can a black African who owns slaves be called a slave owner? How about slave trainer?

    And “she was also a fellow at Columbia University’s Institute for the Study of Human Rights” and studying for her doctorate in Law. Class right to the bottom.

    1. If you can’t learn how to administer slavery at Oxford, you can’t learn it anywhere.

  3. Looks like a good candidate for appointment to various and sundry humans rights commissions and tribunals. In Canada she would likely be appointed to the Senate or Supreme Court.

  4. This is nothing new, nor unsurprising. It is estimated that there are more ‘chattel slaves’ on the African continent right now than there ever were at any given time in during the Colonial/American slave trade (1600s-1865). The hypocritical left overlooks this, as acknowledging it blasts a large hole in their ‘oppressor/oppress-ee’ dialectic, and if you think about that for more than a second at all, it’s because you’re a privileged cis white-supremacist racist bigot colonizer with three centuries of blood on your hands!

  5. I wonder if Joseph Conrad’s critique of Euro colonialism in Africa ever anticipated the natives going full “colonial” by stealing the white mans shit?

    The heart of Darkiness are having their revenge …

  6. I suggest you settler colonialist acid white far right fanatics unpack your sporrans of Irish privilege and think outside the box and embrace diversity. All you need is a soundproof basement addition behind a concealed door and you can start to throw off the legacy of evil whiteness by embracing Wakanda cultural norms. Personally, I feel bad about my ancestors buying slaves, when the enlightened part of the transaction was to harvest and sell them. Like star seed Lydia here. Renewable resource, too.
