'No change' to gay NI adoption law

The current ban on gay and unmarried couples should remain in place until the Stormont Assembly decides otherwise, the Attorney General has said.

John Larkin, QC, said adoption laws were to ensure child welfare rather than satisfy the wishes of would-be parents.

Mr Larkin was representing the Department of Health in a legal challenge brought by the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission.

Northern Ireland, the backwater, reactionary, bigoted part of the UK. Northern Ireland is horrendously out of step with England, Wales and Scotland courtesy of Stormont.

Why do we hang on to this area? Can't we just hand it back to the Republic and let them all be backward, religious and bigoted together?

Any fertile heterosexual couple (or one night stand for that matter) can bring a life into the worth without anyone assessing their suitability. Life-long non-workers, dregs of society, terrible and borderline abusive parents alike... fine. Gay? GTFO.

Although I sometimes think the same, I really don't think my opinion is worth anything. You'd need to ask those that live there what they think.

Off Topic big time; do you really think Northern Ireland is more religious, bigoted and backwards than most of the world? I think Great Britain (as in England, Wales and Scotland) is probably one of the least religious islands there is, but I'm not sure how even my own precious, superior, stuck-up middle England fairs in the bigoted department.

Great Britain is a fairly liberal place, Daily Mail not withstanding, but if Northern Ireland can't keep pace they either need to be dictated to from London or told to shove off.

PS. I personally think we, that is the residents of Great Britain, have just as much right to say whether we wish the Irish, that is the Northern Irish, to remain part of the Kingdom or not, in so much that if we wish them to leave then so be it.

Long story short, the mainstream republican terrorist movement always splits and the retardedness carries on in some capacity. The average person in the street does not give a flying fcuk what religion someone is believe it or not, it's just that sh1te rises to the top here as it does in Glasgow, Liverpool, London... Add some properly fcuked up history and, well, what do you expect?

The Republic doesn't want us and anyone with half a brain knows it wouldn't work financially never mind anything else. You don't just wake up one morning and pretend that you weren't born a British citizen in part of the UK. There's around a million people who just aren't going to do that :lol:

Regarding the story, who's to blame but the British government and it's reps for allowing such nonsense when they had complete control?
