Re: Trying to get the Irish on same page

Im guessing that posters here are forgetting that not all of us living on the Island of Ireland, identify as being Irish?

So should us Brits just give up our identity to appease you guys?

Was it not Lloyd George ?


End of the day, we have people living here who are British, will always want to remain British and why should they not?

Sure you fought a war on an Island most of yous had never heard of, to keep the inhabitants British.

Why them and not us?

Churchill was Home Secretary at the time - his job to organise the referendum and the count subsequently, which is why I say it was him that sodded it up !!!

Re: Trying to get the Irish on same page

I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but is it not the case that Joe has never poured his scorn on such people as Tony B Liar or Compo Corbyn?

I wonder why!

Nationalism is as big a scourge as religion.

Re: Trying to get the Irish on same page

Well I hear Northern Ireland saying they voted to stay in and want the border open , I see the southern Irish demanding no border despite the fact it’s the EU BORDER !!!!
So possibly as the Irish can’t play nicely together and are holding a gun to the English head over brexit a referendum should be held in Northern Ireland on becoming a unified IRELAND .... in other words put up or shut up !!!

Precisely what Sinn Fein have been asking for for some years.
