Kitty Cotter from Bandon has graced our news feeds over the last few days after her granddaughter Ca O’Donoghue posted this video to Facebook.
The former schoolteacher has been lauded for her progressive view on the marriage equality vote, despite her age and the fact that she is a catholic.
She says “I am 101 years old. I believe in the equal rights for all our citizens. Therefore, I will be voting ‘yes’ in the coming referendum.”
And just look at what she wore to her local polling station – a beautiful rainbow-coloured get-up in support for gay marriage. Go granny Cotter. How cool is she.
Watch this space to see what Kitty does when the vote is announced…
