An invitation to Iris

Mark Devenport | 17:03 UK time, Tuesday, 10 June 2008

News reaches me that the Stormont Long Gallery has been booked for a reception on June 24th in honour of NI's "Rainbow Project", a group dedicated to supporting gay and bi-sexual men, and COSO, the Coalition on Sexual Orientation.

One of the organisers, Sinn Fein's Martina Anderson says the aim of the event is to distance MLAs from what she describes as "the pain and offence" caused by Iris Robinson's recent remarks about gays and lesbians. The latest news item on the Rainbow Project's website is headlined "How to report Iris Robinson for Hate Crime Offences".

So will Iris go to the ball? Martina Anderson says she and 107 other MLAs will all be invited. Who knows, this may be the ideal occassion for the First Lady's recommended pyschiatrist to put his theories to the test.
