She tricked me, I was not a happy buny as I was pure up until that point. I'm now married to a lovely Catholic girl and more than fulfilling my duty to Ireland.0 -

Four, number five is on its way and I can't wait. Our familiy has a history of double figures but I migh stop at 7-8 as we will either need a bigger house or stagger the births so that the eldest move out while the new borns arrive.0

I think a United Ireland would only make sense in a UK context.
However one problem, how unique are we here in NI? I find myself so different to English people I meet and those from the ROI. In fact I get along much better with Republicans from NI.
I agree. A UI in the UK. It makes perfect economic sense and with the logic of revolution draining from the south and people seeking a better life some form of federalism may be welcome.
I'm quite happy being Irish and proud of it. I prefer to have the Crown on any official stationery I receive though.
Some people who are politically blind forget that while it was ok for the 26 counties to go for independence in 1922 it was equally democratically sound for the 6 counties to do the same, even if it was for all the wrong reasons.
I don't however think we'd see all the burnings and pogroms against Protestants now that we did in the 20's and 30's. They were mostly by ignorant people who sought to benefit financially from the loss of others, especially in the great land grab. Wasn't Dan Breen the great leader of the Flying Column from Tipp actually taken to court for that in Dublin?0 -

Obviously with your disdain of all things British you refuse all those lovely tax credits & child benefit payments then?0 -

Mine too, and that's my thinking, but we've quite a big house.
Bizarre - a sort of deranged fascist doppelganger. There's a movie in there.“What means that trump?” Timon of Athens by William Shakespeare0 -
