Scotland break from from the 'Auld Enemy' south of the border ... NI gets to remain 'British' ... Eire sees her lands and people 're-united' ... Fling in Newcastle (I like the place, just can't stand the Toon Army) and I'm sold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 That Nigel Dodds is an absolute pillock. Campaigned for a Brexit in spite of the consequences it will have on Northern Ireland and now bums up the Tories and May at every opportunity. Imagine voting for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kejan Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) From the little I know of politics in Northern Ireland, the DUP seem the most mental of the lot. Yet to hear or see a jovial DUP member. Ian Paisley Jr seems the most reasonable, but if you fancy a laugh check out Edwin Poots on Youtube. A perma-seethe. Wonder how disappointed PULs are when they go to the 'mainland' and find most people think they are Irish and not British nor have a scoob that they are a part of the UK. Quite ironic really that the DUP creaming for Brexit has no doubt brought the prospect of a united Ireland closer than it was a year ago.

Whatever one side goes for in NI the other side tends to opt for the other, usually as 'par for the course', almost without thinking. If it's good for them, then it must be bad for us ..... A 'Star of David' is flown on one side, a Palestinian flag pops up on the other. LGBT rights on one side, Christian view point on the other. The Taoiseach spells out dangers of NI leaving the EU, Dup support Brexit .... Edited March 29, 2017 by Crusader Knight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add 7 million (island of Ireland) to Scotland's 5 and you've a pop bigger than that of Belgium. Plus, all the the Guiness you can drink ..... There's a good few functioning countries with less people than Scotland An independent Scotland would be 19th biggest by population out of 28 EU states Behind Finland & Slovakia. If the Republic absorbed Northern Ireland it would overtake us and push us down to 21st 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
