Random BS Poll
Who wants a united Ireland within the next few years?
They can shove it up their botties. It’s a no from me.
It depends. Who’s in charge?
a. Dublin.
b. Belfast.
c. London.
Oh, and a no from me.
(unless at least 75% of the Northern Irish want a United Ireland.)
London or Belfast in charge of a united Ireland, are you on crack?
Would you support a united Ireland if the capital city was moved to Belfast?
Would you support a united Ireland, if it meant that we went back under the mantle of the UK? (Just like we were for 700 of the last 800 years).
The only time that there has been an all-Ireland ruler is under the Brits.
Ah the 800 years thing is a nonsense, sure they only controlled the Pale and a few outposts until 1700’s. Give it a rest.
Brian Boru ruled all of Ireland a century before Strongbow and the lads arrived.
“Would you support a united Ireland if the capital city was moved to Belfast?”
Why are you even asking such a question, who in their right mind would support such a move?
@ReproBertie
Thanks. Brian Boru ruled the whole country for a handful of years.
Yes.
Yes please.
Yes.

Yes, as long as we get that sweet EU funding for it.
With optional “De-Ulster-Plantation” EU grants for any current N.I. residents who’d like to relocate again. Call it the “DUP”, perhaps.
Naturally.
For my folks departed and family to come.
And with substantial reparations from the UK for screwing the place up.
(Also have a €20 bet on since 2008 with Paddy Power – UI by 2022 – can’t remember odds)
Do you still have the slip, though?

I must know
Yeah, it’s still live on my online account. Forgot password though….
Oh Hoopie. You’ll want that if the bet pays off.
Would be nice, the cost though…
I think it makes sense to have unified health, transport, communication, security and tourism sectors anyway.
It’d be a hot, expensive mess and the ultra- conservatives up there would drag ff/fg further to the right, but… Yes. Brits out.
so Starina, you support a Brexit?
Scottish independence first, then Irish unification.
NO
How can you call the Brady amendment “the first step” ? There have been many steps before this step backwards.
Ah Brexit. Means so many different things to so many different people. None of it seems consistent.
We could divide and rule by setting Belfast and Cork at each other.
(PS Cian, Theatre Royal itself faced west, so you’re (unusually) wrong about that pic).
huh? what pic? what Theatre Royal?
The Brits can keep it.
