Queer aye by straight guy

COLIN Farrell is campaigning for gay marriage rights in Ireland.

The actor is supporting a “yes” vote in his native country because he believes in equal rights for the LGBT community and was dismayed when his openly gay brother Eamon had to go to Canada to legally marry his partner.

Writing in the Sunday World, he revealed: “The fact that my brother had to leave Ireland to have his dream of being married become real is insane.

“That’s why this is personal to me. It’s time to right the scales of justice here. To sign up and register to vote next year so that each individual’s voice can be heard.”
