LongTimeLurker Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Definite signs that the UK establishment is now gently ushering NI towards the exit after the DUPes campaigned for something that was very much not in Ulster Unionism's long term interest: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-55783805 Would a BBC Scotland website story highlight a pro-Referendum angle if the poll numbers were breaking 47:42 in the No side's favour, given the BBC's state broadcaster role? Enda has been placed there for a reason. Edited January 24, 2021 by LongTimeLurker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionism winning a border poll (still a lot more likely than not for tribal headcount reasons) means that there can't be another one for another 7 years (an analogy that the Conservatives strangely never seem to want to use in the context of the timing of a second Scottish independence referendum). Not sure that's a long enough gap to make it worth the risk from a Unionist standpoint. Think it's better to wait and hope Brexit related trade issues get fixed over time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I said sooner rather than later I was thinking of the next 2 years, rather than next month, although that's highly unlikely as it would take at least that long to draw up the benefits of a UI to put to the people. In fact it might take 7 years to do that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough Sir Edward Carson, who had been Irish Unionist Alliance MP for the University of Dublin, received an invitation (as did all Irish MPs at the time) to take his seat in the First Dail He declined but his name was still read out at the first roll call followed by laughter from the Sinn Fein MPs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
