    You'd ignore me for being a Catholic?

    I will admit that the amount of "thanks" I have in relation to the number of posts I have made is quite poor but this is usually because I voice an opinion that many don't agree with. Your post to "thanks" ratio dear boy is dreadful though.

    I doubt if Prods would want to stay in a UI and we certainly wouldn't want them there. It was suggested once that the North be repartioned to move Derry, Tyrone and Fermanagh to Ireland. I suppose during the staggering period Prods could move into Antrim, Armagh and Down or even out of Ireland altogether.


    All right, so that's the prods sorted. No doubt they'll be happy to accept your ethnic cleansing. and there will be no implications to this for anyone else's well being. You can always have them gassed if they don't behave.

    Now what about the colossal numbers of slavs and non whites? The muslims? They have more right to live in your new ireland than the prods? on the boats as well?

    Will you all be speaking Irish? Good luck with that. Will catholicism be enforced? Is catholicism the only definition of Irishness? If someone with an english or scottish name - let's see - like adams, morrison, sands, brown - or is a scot like pat doherty mp, is their catholicism more of a qualification than their ethnicity or ancestry - maybe a prod called maginnis, kennedy, kelly, reilly to name a few unionist politicians.

    So let's hear it. Keep going now you've started. You know you want to.

    I'm glad you said it. I don't feel I can. I fear the axe would fall on my unprotected wee heid. :eek:

    Ah, it was actually the funding point lazer had highlighted in the post above mine. Not that I disagree with the basalt vs. limestone argument though!

    Wondering where the info on funding was from as I've been labouring under the misapprehension that I paid to go there myself in the 1980's. Twice. ;)
    I have no doubt that a significant proportion of the funding for some students will come through DE, but I'd actually like to read up on the historical situation pre-GFA and St. Andrews. This is the sort of thing granchildren will ask about in the future and I'd rather know the answer should it come up :)

    You're probably right. I just know a friend's kids had it paid for recently, as did the rest of their class. I also know friends down south see gaeltact trips as the privilege of the privileged.

    Can you speak it?

    It's not ethnic cleansing it population re-distribution. You people created a lot of hurt for my community some of the more hardline elements may want revenge, what some of us are proposing as outlined above is for your own protection.

    It's also unfortunate that in certain areas of the south there has been an upsurge in the Orange Order and this is also happening across the north. This has been met with co-ordinated targeting of hotspots such as halls and churches in border areas. This will continue until numbers begin to decline again.

    The difference between ethnic cleansing and population redistribution being? This, folks, is pretty much definitive fascist hate speech. I'm reminded of all those depressing news reports from the Balkans years ago, and names like slobodan milosevic, ratko mladic and radovan karadzic.
    Now. let's hear your plans for the ethnic minorities. That is, today's ethnic minorities, whose numbers are growing apace, and threatening the overall catholic majority, significantly enhanced by irish emigration.

    Do you have any idea how important the Orange is to many (not all) but many within the Protestant community? I know many members within the ROI who way of life for them both in terms of religion and culture. Many do feel a little vulnerable living in the ROI as there is still not 100% tolerance for the Protestant and certainly not the Orange community there. Your comment is nothing short of a disgrace.

    Ethnic minorities are part of our strategy. Sinn Fein have roped them in and provided innumerable electoral support to them. They go to Catholic schools and worship in Catholic churches. 95% of immigrants are Catholics and none to my knowledge are Prods.
