    His links to Peter Thatchell seems to be raising a few eyebrows especially from the one and only Gemma, https://www.bitchute.com/video/LVSj0LNd83xR/
    I see a lot of people giving out about Roderics new roll across different media not just Gemma.
    I don't know anything about the chap but from his association with Thatchell it would make you wonder if he's been given the right Ministry.

    Thatchell advocated for lowering the age of consent to 14 years old, not only in a 'Romeo and Juliet' laws scenario which would only make it legal if the older partner was under 18/21 etc... he just wants it opened up so that any dirty old pervert can pray on 14 year olds.
    An age of consent of 14 might be more realistic and reasonable than 16. If sex at 14 is consensual, and no one is hurt or complains, is criminalisation in the public interest? Is it in the 14-year-old's interest? It is fair?
    It reinforces the idea that young people under the age of 16 do not have the right to control their own bodies.
    They don't, they're children....

    He's a way with words, it's not someone the minister for children should be associating with or have associated with in the past.

    We had all this with Norris before and his Isralie friend, we don't need a minster with similar baggage again.

    Not true though it was supposed to allow 14 -17 (maximum three year gap ) without facing prosecution which there is likely tens of thousands of 14 year olds sexually active ,other countries looked at the idea too it wasn't a case of anyone could just sleep with someone 14 years and up

    how serious/tenuous are these links between Roderick O'Gorman and Peter Thatchell?

    Peter Thatchell didn't say anything in that quote that beloved Senator David Norris hasn't intimated in the past btw.

    that is not how any of the media read on it. Romeo and Juliet laws (that kind of case you illustrate) are definitely required. Almost every publication on the man paints it as a straight up drop to 14 , however another poster above has a more worrying quote from this man.

    Romeo and Juliet laws are fine, paedophile apologism is barbaric.

    which was also incredibly wrong and rightly received condemnation.

    He litterally said the same thing .


    I'd wonder if there is a full varifed interview which claims the above or was it posted on a quote maker page and posted on social media?

    Calls from GOD....er I wouldn't pay much heed to that eejit...she spends most of her day screaming into the void about anyone and everyone. So it's really "call" from one looper

    What are the links? All I can see is a picture of them at a pride march...who cares! Tenuous to say the least

    The difference is that Norris himself made remarks and proffered his opinion. This seems more Salem material.

    If he was a ff or fg member the loudest minority would be on here screaming for his resignation.

    He is a member of the greens so instead an excuse will be looked for instead.

    For shame guys

    But the several years old photo was dug up and commented on by John Connors (the one from Cardboard Gangsters, not the one from The Terminator)
    The real question is who's feeding him this stuff. I doubt he's trawling politician's old Twitter photos at random.

    Complete and utter BS.
    Who are this loudest minority?

    Id say tatchell has been pictured with plenty of mainstream politicians, especially in the UK, zero controversy this is a reach even for GOD. Embarrassing.

    This thread doesn't half stink of homophobia... Source for "call" is Gemma O'Doherty. Similar to all the stuff about Katherine Zappone plotting bookman sacrifice. So no, there isn't really any demand for him to resign.

    Good God, that's an awful lot more than a random photo.

    Tatchell is also a member of the Green Party which might be another reason for the photo op.
