It’s time for Ireland to come of age with a young, uncynical President

I keep meeting people who think there’s only one referendum on May 22, the one about marriage equality. That’s the one that all the campaigning and all the media coverage is about, and it is vitally important. How we vote in that referendum will make a big statement about us and about how we think.

I urge you to look at an inspirational video produced by BeLonGTo. BeLonGTo is the national organisation that advocates for, and supports, young gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. The video is in support of a ‘yes’ vote and it’s called ‘Bring your family with you’. If you ‘google’ that name, you’ll find it.
