That shit don't wash and never has as history dictates, the push for a united Ireland will never stop until its realised and its very nieve of you to think otherwise. Not taken the wrong way at all mate, and I admit it’s just my very humble outsiders opinion Im a nationalist myself so I completely sympathise with your point. Question mate, what do you do about the people who regard themselves as British ? My wife is from Bangor, she thinks of herself as Irish and British.....how do you solve that particular problem ?

Again, it comes down to the every day things that people in the north take for granted. Sports facilities, broadband, health care, thriving towns and open shops, mobile phone signal........they would have none of this In its current form or at all depending on what it is if they were subsumed into the republic. Their house prices would loose 75 % of their value etc etc The republic couldn’t afford them anyway. When those realities became apparent it would all get shelved imho Romantic notion,have you forget the last 50 years ffs,Wilf I think it's you who's missing all of the above,,once again you've made a bad judgement,take for granted hahaha,an do you these things will disappear if ireland is unified lol shut up would ye,no harm like,but who do you think you are saying that Catholics,(you didn't say Catholics but that's who you mean isn't it,)would give up there country for broadband or whatever,ffs wilf you just sound like a typical English prick,the cheek of you too living in Ireland,oh the irony. House prices would fall blah blah stfu would you you haven't a clue. The south wouldn't want us hahahaha They've no choice its Ireland,an if reunification did happen,the whole thing would have to be redone,Gov,police force etc So please just shut up cause your talking shite. We normally get on,but your condescending sectarianism hidden behind your thin veil of smart talk is rotten. You honestly haven't a f***ing clue,its so ironic,you cant even grasp that ireland is Ireland,not broke in two ffs You bang on about blacks an that coming to your land an taking over the streets,but vacant see the north is ireland,cause it was taken by force,how ironic you are,an il say all this to your face too.

chartpolski 24,804 Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 I don't really want to get into Irish politics, but in my view of it, the mistakes were made when Ireland got independence. What they got then is much like the devolution Scotland has now. Free travel for people, no real border to speak of. Free passage of goods. Irish allowed to work in the U.K. With special tax breaks. Irish allowed to vote in U.K. elections. Where else in the world can foreigners vote in another countries election ? The UK assumes responsibility for coastal search and rescue. There are many bi-lateral agreements between Ireland and the U.K. that doesn't exist with other EU countries. These agreements are incompatible with the EU rules that Ireland signed up to , hence the problems we see now. I can only see two genuine solutions to these problems; 1; Ireland leaves the EU. 2; Ireland becomes truly "independent " and all the "special arrangements " are cancelled. This won't happen, so we will muddle along for the foreseeable future. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Niw I will hold my hands up and say of course I look at it from a British slant but I’m not sectarian in any way shape or form, and catholic’s never entered my head I promise you. Im a catholic myself although I completely reject that sick, twisted club and all the evils it has ever committed on the innocent. Drive across the border in Cavan and their is a village, you will know the road because there is an IRA monument along there. In the Republic side the village is wrecked !......boarded up shops and just general decline. 2 miles the other side of the border the place is buzzing, not an empty shop to be seen. Now, I just wanted to live out the way so it don’t mean that much to me but it means something to most people. Someone who’s house is worth £300,000 in NI isn’t (imho) going to want that house worth €60,000 as part of the republic because that’s what it is. Its just day to day realities mate, I’m sure lads who feel as strongly as you would happily give £240,000 of your wealth for a United ireland but not everyone will. I don’t care one way or the other, long as I ain’t living amongst wogs I don’t give a shit ! Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I respect your point of view mate, however I can’t help but point out that last time I looked Ireland was part of the British isles and always has been. That makes people British and Irish. The dog in a stable analogy don’t work I’m afraid in this scenario Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't give two bucks about money,property value etc that will even itself out,ireland was partioned in 1921,a hundred years ago,it was ireland for thousands of years,against her will,so it's always hasn't been the British isles,now if folk want to say the british cause they were born in the north,then that's there problem. Iv an Irish passport,but the north is british haha I'm no way sectarian,it just boils my piss when folk downgrade irelands unification,an give economic or whatever reasons. You came to ireland to get away from the wogs,would you be happy if the wogs had an army an took over by force an partioned ant part of England?no an you certainly wouldn't call it any other name than England. If you look at a n.ireland passport,it says Great Britain AND n.ireland,so the folk calling themselves british are dreaming wilf,its the irish isle an british isle.

Francie 6,368 Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 I'm not going too ramble on but when someone trys to bring an Irishman an Irish unification down then il say my bit.
