Celebrities worldwide are supporting a YES in the referendum

Uniquely Irish

May 25, 2018

Today is the day folks.

Irish people are taking to the polls, to vote on whether or not the archaic 8th amendment should be repealed.

We have watched heartwarming videos of people returning home, we have listened to brave women share their stories, and we have shed a tear on occasion.

One thing that really struck me (and made me extremely emotional) is the attention the referendum is getting aboard – particularly among celebs.

There's something incredible about seeing people you admire taking to their social media to support a cause relevant to your future, and the future of all Irish women.

Here are just a few of the amazing celebrities who are supporting a change to the 8th amendment – because it's about bloody time!

A vote for the freedom to choose, a vote for women's rights, a vote for women's control over their bodies, a vote for women's health & safety, a vote towards equality. Thinking of Ireland #together4yes #repealthe8th https://t.co/CDNj9KoSGt

As one Global Gag rule creeps in I just wanted to say how much I give a damn about a woman’s right to choose and have agency over her own body and future. With love, in solidarity and thinking of the women of Ireland. #repealthe8th
