HOLLYOAKS STAR SPEAKS OUT AGAINST MP IRIS ROBINSON AND HER HOMOPHOBIA

Gerard McCarthy, who plays bisexual character Kris Fisher in Hollyoaks has spoken out against Irish MP Iris Robinson (See Below). Robinson, who is married to the First Minister of Northern Ireland, has been criticised for speaking out against gay people and has refused to modify her position that homosexuality is vile, wicked and an abomination, based on her Biblical beliefs.


During a June 17th House of Commons committee discussion on the assessment and management of sex offenders, Mrs Robinson said:
"There can be no viler act, apart from homosexuality, than sexually abusing innocent children."
She claims that she meant that child abuse is worse than homosexuality.


Mr McCarthy, who plays Kris Fisher in Hollyoaks, told the Belfast Telegraph that he regularly receives letters from teenagers who are being bullied because they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or trans.

"There should be no place for hateful and extremist opinion," he said.

"Moreover, to have a Member of Parliament advocate them must certainly be in violation of the MPs' code of conduct.

"The wife of the First Minister should be forced to resign, made to give a formal apology and retract her comments in order to ensure that everyone is treated fairly and equally under the law." [SOURCE]

I am with Gerard on this. This woman is ridiculous and should not be in the spotlight promoting hatred. I am sure something will happen to her. Karma is a Bitch I hear.

"GAYS ARE NOT ILL, JUST AN ABOMINATION"

I Just read this disturbing story from Queerity.com. This silly Ireland politician, Iris Robinson upset a lot of people when she came out against the gays. People have began to use her name for the butt of jokes and she is now claiming that people are taking her words out of context. So now she is heading out with new claims:

"Stormont Health committee chair Iris Robinson last night accused her political rivals of twisting her comments on homosexuality and denied she believed it was a mental disorder…Mrs Robinson said: “People have attempted to suggest that I indicated that homosexuality was a mental health issue. Nothing could be further from the truth. What I did say was homosexuality, like all sin, is an abomination." [SOURCE]

What's even more funny is that her mouth wont quite rambling. She is now saying she has the way to cure the gays as well:

"Will the minister agree with me that there are some people who are in their teenage years sexually confused and that they could do with help in terms of practitioners assessing them with talking therapies to help them realize exactly what they are, whether they are heterosexual or homosexual?"

Oh Dear God.. Can someone please run over to her and duck tape her mouth.. Too much!!
