The marriage equality referendum takes place on May 22nd and there has been much debate from both the “Yes” and “No” sides.

Ca O’Donoghue asked her grandmother Kitty Cotter how she would be voting on the day and the 101-year-old had a firm reply.

The retired primary school teacher from Bandon, Co Cork said she believes “in equal rights for all our citizens” and for that reason she will be voting yes.

Decided to ask my 101 year old grandmother how she’s voting in the marriage referendum in a few weeks…what a hero! #equality #voteyes #marriageequality
