Kenny: A yes will obliterate prejudice

Enda Kenny has said a yes vote on same-sex marriage in tomorrow’s referendum will “obliterate” publicly the remaining barriers of prejudice or the irrational fear of the “them” and “us”.

The Taoiseach also told a packed press conference in Dublin that the referendum was not about surrogacy or religion.

“This is about extending the right to civil marriage, not religious marriage. It will not affect in any way the freedom of denominational schools in anyway to teach their own doctrine and own understanding of religious marriage.”
