No place for homophobic or misogynistic attitudes – McGuigan

Sinn Féin MLA Philip McGuigan has said there can be no place for homophobic or misogynistic attitudes in society. 

The North Antrim MLA was speaking after outrageous comments made DUP councillor John Carson.

Philip McGuigan said:

“Comments like those from John Carson are disgraceful and should be withdrawn.

“There can be no place for homophobia, sectarianism, racism, misogyny or any form of discrimination in our society, unfortunately in some quarters these attitudes remain.

“All such comments need to be faced down and challenged.”

We already have 4,000 children in emergency accommodation. Sinn Féin's bill on Tuesday aims to prevent more children being made homeless this Christmas.

We need to implement an immediate and temporary ban on no-fault evictions – @Farrell_Mairead #TWIP

❤️Tá sé thar am an deis a thapú agus tús a chur le pleanáil d’Éirinn Aontaithe.
🩷There's no time like the present to seize the opportunity and start planning for a United Ireland.
🗣️Bhí cruinniú bríomhar agus thar a bheith suimiúil sa Cheathrú Rua maidir le Éire Aontaithe.
