Aidan Gillen has posted a video calling for a Yes vote in the upcoming Marriage Equality referendum.

The Game of Thrones star points out that same sex couples have been raising children in Ireland for years and will continue to do so regardless of the outcome of the vote on May 22nd.

“Vote yes for every LGBT child growing up in Ireland, for their future,” implores Gillen, who also speaks of the damage a no vote will do to people who only want to be seen as equal in the eyes of the state.
