Three days before Ireland votes on whether to allow same sex marriage, Matt Cooper is joined by Alex White, Colm O'Gorman, Breda O'Brien and Jim Walsh to debate the issue.

Ireland will vote on Friday on whether same sex couples should be allowed to get married.

On Monday, Amnesty International's Colm O'Gorman, Senator Jim Walsh, Communications Minister Alex White and Breda O'Brien from the Iona Institute joined Matt in studio for a lengthy debate on the issues involved.

Each participant was allocated a 90-second introductory speech at the start to argue for their position on the referendum.

The debate then began and, as you can hear if you listen back, it was a feisty and passionate affair.
