President Robert Mugabe has laid into Britain describing it as 'small in mind' and a nation that had 'gone to the dogs'.
Mugabe said people with 'gay habits' in Britain should be ashamed adding that he felt 'pity' for the Queen, who he admires. 
In a rare interview, Mugabe hit out at the Labour 'ruffians' of 1997 and branded then Prime Minister Tony Blair and US President George W Bush 'liars' over their dealings with his homeland.
He said: 'That wisdom which the likes of Churchill had, where is it? 
'You can't see it in people now with gay habits - shame on them. I pity the one lady I admire, the Queen, that she is in these circumstances, I'm sure down deep she must be groaning (at) the loss of values in Britain.
'They've gone to the dogs.'He went on to say that 'countries don't respect Britain any more' and that Prime Minister David Cameron 'doesn't talk much, but he acts in the same was as (George W) Bush'.
The extraordinary outburst also involved an attack on current US President Barack Obama who he claimed had abandoned the black population in the US.
The interview came just weeks after Mugabe marked his 90th birthday by telling Britain: 'We don't hate you, we only love our country better'.
