Survey boost for gay equality campaign

YOUR excellent survey on the lives of lesbian, gay and bisexual people in Ireland was not just timely and informative - it was also very important (Irish Examiner, February 21/22).

By presenting such a fair image of the attitudes towards us, and fair descriptions of our lives, you have actually moved on the national discourse among your readership and beyond.

Your survey will now form a new baseline showing the strong goodwill towards our community - and of the residual problems that we still face.
