[FONT="]In the Republic of Ireland, a recent poll found 65 per cent of people would back a United Ireland in a referendum. Across the South, student unions have passed or proposed motions backing reunification. In a sign that the issue is not just a flash in the pan, or the exaggerated opinions of a few vocal activists, the Irish Taoiseach Enda Kenny has announced that the UK’s Brexit plans must include a contingency plan for a United Ireland.[/FONT]
Kinda odd no one posted this one. But there was an election in Northern Ireland and the Unionists lost big time. This means that the chance of a united Ireland is bigger than ever, as the Unionists cant block legislation leading to such an event. Add to that, Brexit and just maybe there is a good chance of an United Ireland.
For the first time in my life, the prospect of a united Ireland is not only credible but inevitable | The Independent
One has to wonder if it is possible.

I mean if they want to team up with the former " Celtic Tiger" now more of a dead kitten then yes go for it. As an Englishman I'm bored of hearing the rest of the UK moaning about being part of us. But if they leave then they give up our currency, give up our passports etc. I don't want any of this currency sharing nonsense that the SNP tried to push through.
Longer than 50 years.I'm Irish. I'm prejudiced. I want England booted from Ireland. England created an apartheid state and caused misery and death. Even united, I would expect it to take 50 years to find normalcy. Too much hatred. Close to racism. Religion and war, as well. Dumb.

My sentiments exactly! My grandmother left in 1920, her brothers fought the English. They starved the Irish, and made life horrible.

In other words, you want to drive the Protestants out of Ireland.

and Iceland.I like to pick on the Faroese..
Ooh! Aah! Up the RA!
Faroese isn't Icelandic, it's Old West Norse. Where both Icelandic and Faroese derive from that, they're not mutually intelligible when spoken but writing is a different matter.:thumbs: Great idea! It would certainly cut down on arguments between countries, since hardly anyone understands that ancient language these days - except politicians worldwide, of course, who have all apparently adopted it as their second language. Odd how a very old Icelandic language would become so popular in politics today ... :lamo
If at all, that would be Northern Ireland.In other words, you want to drive the Protestants out of Ireland.
There's a lot that needs to be forgotten, for sure. Can't happen in one generation.
I love how these threads bring out the 'bash the English' crowd, Pete et al....and all the faux Irish! Hell, there's more Americans claiming to be Irish, than the Irish themselves :roll:
