Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1I run a site over on Facebook called 'Lets tell Iris Robinson where she can stick it!' (as mentioned in the Irish News)
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=29343385488
It's not a definitive source of information, but in the 12 days that has existed has got over 2700 members! It's place to share relevant information, complaint strategies, share letter templates, feed back on responses sent, and of course moan!
There was also a public meeting held at Clanmill house in Belfast, hosted by the Coalition on Sexual Orientation (CoSO), chaired by the BBC's William Crawley. Over 150 attended, with many turned away due to the capacity of the venue.
CoSo may put up some kind of action plan on their site (as a result of the meeting) for people who are feeling a bit helpless in not knowing what to do.http://www.coso.org.uk/
So you need not feel alone.
This woman is an obscenity. I'm not one for actively protesting but this really wound me up. It would be nice to think she would be prosecuted for this but it is unlikely. I do however hope that the volume of protest against her brings about a resignation or even better a humiliating sacking.
You are right Kevin but to the DUP types it is as much cultural as anything. Not long ago in the sainted Republic someone said to me that gays could be cured if they wanted - and some were just plain evil. Their idea is that gays are straight people who want to try something different. She's a soft target all considered, and unfortunately no TD / MLA is actually "responsible for the lives of others" or else they would all be sued all day long.
Condolences to victims of hate attacks, but maybe it's as well that the DUP's fundamentalist attitudes are out in the open for discussion. I hope that most people don't think they speak for the majority of Christians, who mainly have their own opinions on people's sexuality. A lot of faiths tend to want their adherents to breed more of the faithful, so they don't get outnumbered by the other religions; oppression of homosexuals & denial of women's reproductive rights come from this source.
I was really wound up by the news item feeling so helpless and disempowered and wanting somewhere to register my disgust and fears about a health minister being so divisive and inequitable - Who next what has she to say about my constituency of mental health.
I am also bothered about the pscyhiatrist who turns people round in the name of counselling.
I cannot bear the thought that this event will disapear into the ether as so much else does in Northern Ireland as the base line of normality is so skewed.
I was also gutted to hear that peter robinson proclaimed in response that he is guided in all matters by his god where does this fit into being responsible for those in the province who dont share that god?
I serioulsy want soemthing concrete like a book of condolence for the twice over victim and a registration of protest. i'll do anything.
