More than 20,000 people have signed a petition to legalise same sex marriage in Northern Ireland.
The signatures have been presented by People Before Profit's Gerry Carroll MLA at the NI Assembly at Stormont today, 20 September.
Mr Carroll said: "For too long our LGBT+ friends, family and comrades have suffered discrimination under the current outdated and backward law, which denies people here the same rights afforded to people in the rest of the UK. It's about time that is rectified. In fact, it's long overdue.
"I hope this petition can restart the very important conversation about how Stormont has let down the LGBT+ community for too long, and I think we need to continue to campaign on the streets. It is through sustained campaigning and pressure on our politicians, that we can win long deserved equality in the North, just as it was won in the South."
