Sinn Fein has been fighting a heated battle against the extreme right-wing Unionists to legalize gay marriage in the Six Occupied Counties of Ireland, prompting increasingly intense outbursts from the occupation authorities.

An Ulster Unionist councillor has withdrawn comments comparing homosexuality to a “disease” during a debate on gay marriage.

This is good. More than 80% of ConquerClub supports social justice. Let's translate goodwill to good works.

Sinn Fein are right on this, although your poll is trollish.

The Ulster Unionists are also a NI party, albeit one with a nasty legacy from the Troubles, like Sinn Fein.

I'm pretty sure that certain opponents to gay marriage feel that fucking kittens is implied by support for homosexual marriage. It's a slippery slope, after all,

A parade last month in Belfast of supporters of groups opposed to marriage equality in Britain. Why won't police permit counter-demonstrations to these kind of events (in interest of supporting LGBTQI rights)?
