Marriage Equality Referendum: Voting yes is about ensuring fair play for all our children

The marriage referendum is a deeply personal issue for many men and women who, up to now, have been denied full rights as citizens of Ireland, writes Michael ‘Babs’ Keating.

I AM a man of sport and community and I know a positive grassroots movement when I see one. The yes campaign is supported by men and women from all walks of life: Gay, straight, married, single; and of all codes in sport, even Tipp and Kilkenny hurlers!

A yes vote on May 22 would change the lives of many men and women who, up to now, have been denied full rights as citzens of this great country.
