Ireland double referendum: heavy defeats for 'Yes'

Defeat for progressives and woke activists who sought to delete the traditional family and mothers from the constitution

🔥 BREAKING: The "Family" referendum in Ireland, which was supported by the Government and would have created a new woke definition for what a family is, has been defeated in a landslide, with 68% of people voting No.

Voters in the Republic of Ireland have overwhelmingly voted against amending the Irish Constitution.

Proposals to alter wording in the constitution to include families which are not based on marriage were defeated with 67.7% voting 'no'.

A second proposed change on the wording around the role of women in the home was defeated by a higher margin with 73.9% of voters rejecting it.

It was the highest ever no vote percentage in an Irish referendum.

The first result announced on Saturday evening was in the family referendum.

The highest 'no' votes came from Donegal where 80% voted no on family and 84% voted no on care.

Only D?n Laoghaire, south-east of Dublin voted narrowly in favour of changing the definition of a family.

Well done Ireland.

The traditional family is the best thing for children, as are mothers (yes, actual females) raising children.

Here's a complication of moronic politicians struggling to define what a woman is.

Quite clearly the Irish people are as fed up with this garbage as I am.

Ireland's Prime Minister Leo Varadkar resigns.

I don't follow Irish politics much so cannot vouch for how much these caused his downfall, but clearly there's been an impact.
