'Gay conversion therapy' film sparks protest at Belfast church
Mike Davidson, director of Christian group Core Issues Trust and John O'Doherty, of The Rainbow Project, debate with Stephen the ethics of gay conversion therapy.
A protest took place outside a Presbyterian church in Belfast last night. The protestors said it was because the church was hosting an event which promoted so-called 'gay conversion' therapy.
Mike Davidson, the director of Christian group Core Issues Trust who produced the film, and John O'Doherty, from The Rainbow Project, debate with Stephen the ethics of gay conversion therapy, which the Government's Equalities Office has described as wrong and says it's bringing forward proposals to end such practices in the UK.
Also on the programme, should Shamima Begum, the London school girl who joined ISIS, be allowed back into the UK? Her Family are pleading for her safe return. But Home Secretary Sajid Javid says he will do all he can to prevent that from happening. Commentator Phil Kelly and former NI UKIP leader David McNarry debate with Stephen.
All that and more on the biggest show in the country.
