In a not-so surprising turn of events, the Commission on Elections has yet again denied Ang Ladlad’s application for party-list accreditation. And this time, the reason is immorality.
Read this very deplorable news from Newsbreak below and see if you won’t get offended or angered by how the COMELEC officers think these days.
In light of this COMELEC decision, Ang Ladlad is calling all its members, allies, friends and supporters to a general assembly on 14 November 2009, Saturday, 8am-12nn at the Seminar Room 108 of the University Hotel, UP Diliman. For directions, call the University Hotel at landline 926.1975/926.1953 or mobile 0920.471.0111.
It’s time to get up and stand up for our rights!

The 2010 Elections is just right around the corner! This election may be one of the most, if not the most, controversial elections in the history of the Philippines. Will you remain indifferent and leave it all to blaming the politicians, or will you do your part in making the 2010 Elections clean, honest, accurate, meaningful and peaceful?
If you chose the latter but do not know how you can be of help, then today is your lucky day! If you have not registered yet, or are not sure about your registration status, visit Bakla sa 2010: The Philippine Elections Coverage for more information.
I am personally inviting everyone to join the Parish Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting as a volunteer! Simply visit the PPCRV website or the PPCRV MyVote Facebook Page for details.
(The PPCRV, in cooperation with Namfrel and the ABS-CBN News Channel, yesterday held the Talakayan Forum at Plaza Miranda where six possible presidential candidates – former President Joseph Erap Estrada, Senator Loren Legarda, Senator Richard Gordon, Senator Chiz Escudero, Senator Mar Roxas, and Pampanga Governor Ed Panlilio – answered questions from the different marginalized sectors of our society. Watch out for replays on ANC and on GNN.)
