Video: Family Values Man doesn’t want men and women to marry

Hopefully this isn't Ireland's next presidential candidate

Hopefully this isn’t Ireland’s next presidential candidate.

Ah, that old family values chestnut. Better make sure you practice the script before taking the microphone and making a complete eejit out of yourself, though.

This is Michael O’Leary, who had some stern words for Vincent Browne during The People’s Debate at the Charleville Park Hotel in Cork last night.

He got so angry that he called for a ban on marriage between men and women, sat down smugly before realised his mistake, then promptly got back on his soapbox. Let’s just say he’s a hard man to take seriously, and a meme waiting to happen.

Vincent, for his part, just cracked up.
