It will never get that violent again IMO. The provos would have to build from the ground up and so much has changed, namely the yanks' attitude to terrorism and the Britsh security services' post 9/11 manpower and capabilities.

 

There's also the political dynamic. The Irish PM is a gay agnostic and the pope's recent visit was a footnote compared to when JP went there.

 

Even in Liverpool you used to get your head kicked in in the 80s if you were from a Protestant school and you got legged by some catholic lads and vice versa, those schools are pretty much all gone now or are 'community schools' and non religious, it's just a different world.

 

If it kicks off again in NI it'll be young lads with nothing to do and a few gangland types.

And the majority of the Uk. Not quite alone mate.

They don't post on the TLW GF, though

You're dead keen to get on with it but you can't say what 'it' is and how do we go about doing it?

Along with the rest of them as every plan they come up with is shite

At some stage you might want to ask yourself if every plan is shite maybe the whole idea is shit especially as it's  pushed by racists, nats and the scum of the earth such as Farage, Hohnson, Gove and Fox

That is bollocks.

People getting killed is not down to the referendum.

Have you ever been there or done business there?

The EU and the border has been an ignored racket for fucking years. It will be same old.

Cattle. Fuel, shopping etc

It hasn't been "an ignored racket". It's been opened under the terms of first the Maastricht Treaty and then the Good Friday Agreement.

 

You're planning to replace that with... something... no idea what, but I'm sure it'll be fine. Right?

 

I mean, what's the worst that could happen?

You seem to be coming at this from a view point where violence is instigated from nationalists. IMO it's far more likely to come from loyalists if any power is removed from London to Dublin. They are far less likely to sit on their hands if this goes in a certain direction. They love the queen more and the flag more than is normal for a sane person. It would be harder for them or the IRA to get to previous levels but they do have the know how and the resources to get up and running quickly.

I think you're probably right but it's still not a great basis for creating any sort of coherent NI policy.

You could just as easily mention the fact that the American President is a half-whit who is easily offended; Putin is waiting to stir things up and giving money to a new bunch of terrorists sounds great

Not to mention the economic/political/social chaos that Brexit is/will cause and the whole thing is on a knofr edge

I didn't mean it to come across like that, but yeah I take your point. I still don't think either side has got the level of political support or paramilitary skill it had in decades gone by.

Your probably correct but the level of threat is a lot higher than level of thought it has been given from London.

The opinion polls of both catholics and protestants currently indicate that both are happy to be in the UK but I reckon a united Ireland will happen if things progress they way they have been.

 

Unionists are beginning to see that the republic is no longer a 3rd world roman catholic church strangled state and that the Irish arent all backward rabid nationalists that want to drive them in to the sea. Of course the nutters who have other agendas will never be on board.

 

Impose a united ireland, hell will break out

With all due respect, that sounds like a load of cobblers.

What do you mean by "individual identity" and how does the EU threaten it?

It’s all bollocks. If, and it’s a big fucking if, the was a future threat to individual nations sovereignty then come out then. Why come out now because you’d scared of something happening in the future that you can escape?

I should probably add that I'm knackered and grumpy and I've got a headache. That first sentence is ruder and more dismissive than it should have been.

 

The questions are genuine, though.

I view the 61 years that the EU (or the EEC) has existed as a period in which no Member States have been to war with each other. That is unprecedented in European history and it's dangerous to ignore it.

 

None of the economic injustice of the last 30 years constitutes evidence that the UK is going to somehow become a Socialist paradise on leaving the EU.

Considering the situation the Eu finds itself with Russia and considering the Eu push for austerity I find you're comments delusional, but yoy keep on following the same yellow brick road, all that's at the end is some old cunt pulling a wheel.

A couple of quotes from my favourite chef...

 

 

"Never have I seen a country led so badly in my life - by a bunch of monkeys, frankly. I'd like to have them all at a Christmas party and give them the worst hiding they could imagine."

 

"Led by a load of donkeys. Harrow, Eton and these private schools where most of these absolute monkeys come out of. I'd love to smack their arses with a big cane."

This is in response to a post which consists of facts. You find facts "delusional".

 

That is all.

Johnson, the thin cunt & co are now sharing a platform with Patrick Minford. Giving that anti-scouse fucking weirdo economic credibility.

 

Trying to argue that no deal is a good idea.

 

These people will cause deaths.

 

They are fucking psychopaths.

Didn't all these Tories say that economists don't know what they are talking about?
