How does the 5% affect your life? As in directly? And not just cliches about us losing our country, or what you read in the sun, or about how schools are having their nativity plays cancelled? How does it affect you, and what would you like to see done about it?

And what do you believe? And what is your argument?

*** I have looked around, and I see a multicultural society where people are free to practice region as they see fit, without persecution. I do also see unfortunately, a small but very vocal group of hateful xenophobics who are brainwashed by the right wing media. This group of people...

Well said. Whilst I may not agree with you, the irony is I would defend your right to say what you want...however there appears to be a tipping point at which ones own personal freedom encroaches on anothers freedom. I personally would rather people were just decent human beings, rather than...

My world is clearly vastly different from yours

In my opinion, which is also legally supported, your personal choices do not trump a level of equality I am afforded. If you choose to discrimate against someone for reasons they cannot change, such as sexuality, sex or ethnicity, your freedom of choice puts you in contravention of not only...

And thank goodness that the current law makers do prevent the bigotry you support.

So you refuse to serve me in your pub, because, let's say, I'm black. I lean over the counter and headbutt you. In your world, this is ok because everybody has exercised their personal freedom? Let's not forget, both refusing to serve me and my assaulting you is currently illegal. But if...

I am genuinely shocked at the level of bigotry displayed on this forum. I'm just glad that the discrimination on show here is not represented in our culture, as Ireland has just proven. Being gay is not a choice, so why should they not have equality?

According to you, being gay is unnatural. You don't have a problem with gays, only those who go against 'nature'. Doesn't your statement contradict itself? If you are a bigot, why dance around the issue? Just say you don't like gays? I don't get why so many people have such strong...

Over 1500 animal species exhibit homosexual behaviour, making it natrual, not unnatural. Man up and admit you're wrong

You are wrong

Problem solved then, we just need to put more money in. If we all cut back excessive lifestyle habits, and give the money we save to desperate people, we will live longer and be healthier, and so will the starving. We could save thousands of lives, and because of the increased spending on...

I actually find it quite offensive that you would dismiss many years of research by some of our planets brightest minds as "some boffin spouting". If you don't think the majority of the public are able to ascertain who is funding the research, then establish for themselves whether it is...
