This video by lawyer Una McGurk explains what the March 2024 two referendums are about and why you should vote No.

Basically these changes give no additional rights and do nothing for the public but what they do is take away rights. Interesting the phrase "durable relationships" which they want to insert are not even defined and can and will be interpreteted by the courts

So why did the government rush the legislation through blocking any proper debate and scrutiny. They are not known for doing things for our benefits but for the corporate sponsors

This rule also has massive implications to inheritance and who in a "durable" relationship is now entitled to inheritance

Michael M Dowell -former attorney general has created the Lawyers for No campaign too
