Fine Gael Senator says far too many attacks on people because of sexuality by those who ‘do not accept’ equality

Three gay men walking in the Phoenix Park in Dublin were “hunted” by six men with knives because of their sexuality in an incident on Tuesday.

Mr Ward asked “what on earth is going on that this still happens in Ireland in 2024 when every right- thinking member of society recognised the normality of sexual relationships between people of the same gender or same sex?”Nina Carberry’s vanishing act is a sign of casual disregard for European Parliament‘My daughter has been in a relationship with a horrible bully for more than eight years’

He called for a debate on the steps needed “to protect everyone equally” and pointed to June being Pride month with its festival taking place on the 28th. “These are ordinary people walking down the street holding hands getting verbal abuse from people who do not seem to understand that they are perfectly entitled to do that,” he said.
