  Britain wants government to hold peace talks with the Lord's Resistance Army rebels.

  "The government in UK has acknowledged the suffering in northern Uganda caused by the LRA rebels," said Mr Jon Elliot, the deputy British High Commissioner to Uganda. "I think the war effort has failed; what the country should resort to is to pursue peace talks."

  Elliot was speaking at the Uganda Human Rights Commission headquarters in Kampala on November 7.

  The diplomat decried the deepening humanitarian crisis in the camps for the internally displaced in the war-torn areas of the country and pledged his government's help to the displaced persons.
