An Ulster Unionist councillor has withdrawn comments comparing homosexuality to a “disease” during a debate on gay marriage.
Jackie Crawford made his controversial comments while discussing a Sinn Fein motion on gay marriage at a meeting of Magherafelt District Council on Tuesday.

Re: Politician Calls Homosexuality a Disease
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)?
