Yeah, she was very much too emotionally involved to construct her argument in a better manner. This is the thing, people like Breda are not emotionally attached to the issue so they can maintain their calm in debate so seemingly remain "dignified" in their backwards views

It's obvious Breda and the Iona lot have received extensive media PR support.

You can call it a lot of things depending on the nature of it but if your talking marriage then it's a marriage same as it will be for gay couples. It's no difference.

But how can you redefine a union between a man and a woman.

It is daft logic.

And - I've a good feeling the public will not go for it.

Yes give them full rights within a civil partnership.

Why is Keith here? Total bellend.

Because he is gay and against gay marriage so he represents all gay community that is gay and against gay marriage, comprising of approximately Keith and .......... noone else, I would imagine. But because he is gay, his views are, in his opinion, more worthy of Colin Farrell who is neither gay nor lives in Ireland ....

Here she is on the Late Late Show, back in 1991...

hoodwinked

since we are all speaking our opinions and making them count for others, let me just say this

"i am a straight married woman, my marriage is not based on other marriages, my marriage will NOT be affected if we vote Yes, i will still have the same marriage with the same values after Same Sex Marriage is legalised"

so why they hell do people think it will affect theirs? if they are basing their marriage on other people they shouldn't be married!

I actually enjoyed the 1st programme tonight. The SSM marriage debate was really enjoyable.

Claire Byrne did a smashing job on the 1st night. Well done to her.

Far too much focus on the Helen Lovejoy argument that has zero relevance to what we'll actually be voting on.

Fair play to the lady from the Adoption Alliance for telling Iona where to shove their agenda suiting piggy backing

The pro side need to remove emotions from debate. If they don't the con side will just attack this weak point and look better.

I think you're probably overestimating the number of bigots in the country. Times have changed. A decent turnout will result in the referendum being passed.

I remember her from some other debate, was it Vinny B?

Her dress sense hasn't improved, not her smug concerned condescension.

AFAIK all of her children were home schooled.

You'd think 'redefined' has been redefined to mean murder or slaughter or something the way some people fear it...

A lot of people were taken aback I think, but if Britney's Vegas marriage doesn't represent straight marriages then Stephen's shouldn't represent gay ones!

????? I don't get the analogy, I will be honest! Just seems like a very imbalanced relationship. Please dont take that wrong way.

It all get's even more complicated where the original initial build is in a foreign country (commercial surrogacy in a basket case country for cash prize monies).

I don't know much about this but why are children being brought into the debate?

Seems to me the waters are being muddied a bit
