Roderic O Gorman has a tweet from 2018 showing him looking very happy to be with PT at Dublin Pride. I am writing to my local TD as well as opposition Party members to question his support of such a person.
Any Irish person want to follow suit?

Well I read that interview with Tatchell and thought Tatchell denied all associations with his previous views and said he abhorred the abuse of children and condemned all sex with children - so where does that leave us? Apart from the Transgender kids issue which O'Gorman is promoting.

I've read through their quotes from Mr Tatchell, who unreservedly condemns paedophilia. In his shoes, I think I would be shouting that quite loudly.

There were many instances (referred to in the Gript piece you linked) where he reviewed a book, or penned a chapter or wrote obituaries where, subsequently, the author or subject was revealed to have concerning views on Paedophilia.

One could suggest that Mr Tatchell might take greater care in researching the backgrounds of people with whom he is associated.

One could say the same about Mr O'Gorman.

Last sentence of GRIPT article.
That is what we know, but what we have to decide, based on the evidence available to us, is if Peter Tatchell’s explanations are probable.

Yes, Flores. Yes indeed.
