You could say that about anything, why focus on Brexit when there are far more important issues? ETC.

It's silly logic that only serves to minimise issues that YOU are uncomfortable with. Having a potential PM that doesn't believe in equal rights for all citizens is problematic as hell, you just don't care because you think it's okay because it doesn't affect you. Your continued lack of empathy for everyone that is different from you is quite worrying.

As for whether or not it's an important issue, I'd say it definitely is. Supporting the idea that gay people should essentially not be given access to the same rights based on their sexuality is a massive civil issue and would be a step backwards. Having a potential candidate for Prime Minister that opposes equal rights should be hugely worrying for everyone.
