1·11 months agoMate they made Northern Ireland in an election
I’m going to assume you’re not Irish and don’t actually understand this because Christ you are inconsolable
I’m not going to argue further with this aggressive babble. We had issues with Northern Ireland very recently and I do not want any of that to come back any time soon. Brexit didn’t do shit, those tensions have been around for decades. It’s absurd that you think I’m the one disconnected from the situation when in Ireland, Mary Lou has been lambasted for these reunification comments. And no, they don’t want to leave the UK. Go to Northern Ireland. It’s a strange place with strange people, and what they want is not what you want.
What does it achieve to unify now? A sizeable portion of the population actively opposes it, and besides that the Northern Irish economy is largely dependent on the British government, meaning that there would be significant cost to the Irish state were they to begin managing the north counties. They chose a century ago to remain in the UK and despite an almost complete lack of acknowledgment from the general British population fiercely defend that decision. It’s about more than just religion, though that can be a common grouping of the different factions.
Reunification is an insane idea that the moment. No need to risk the violence of the past for nationalist dreams.
I can’t believe this is a real comment

Wouldn’t the Good Friday Agreement stop this from happening? The ECHR is incorporated into the law of Northern Ireland. I do hope they don’t muck it up again

Mate you can’t just say “this happened, and it’s up to you to prove it didn’t”. You have to prove the aliens are real yourself, because the accepted belief is that they aren’t. Don’t make aliens you religion.

Well that’s not a very kindhearted response
