I'm sure that was the Protestant Unionists.
They’re all EU mouthpieces speaking here. The rebels of old didn’t fight and die for Ireland to become vassals of this “superstate”, but that’s where they are right now; they’ll find that whatever the EU turns into in the future will be a far crueler master than the British Empire ever was.
Leprechauns been eating the wrong kind of mushrooms in their forest lately - ha! (Go ahead and “recognize” your hallucinatory fakestinian “ State” - nobody gives a damn about you or any other Nazis anymore )
All along the road to the Tribulation, the Great Tribulation and Armageddon.
Enjoy, world.
They’ve had the double whammy of IRA and EU influence.
That’s what I was afraid of. Thanks for posting.
Have you ever been to NI?
Only when I was a child, and briefly. The Troubles were in full swing back then.
Ireland is receiving more than they are contributing to the EU. It’s about money, not principles.
I never believe that; that comes from the EU’s figures.
The referendum votes on homosexual “marriage” and abortion weren’t due to EU money; people weren’t literally paid to vote the way they did, but they were propagandized.
The EU is pushing for Ireland to raise their corporate tax rate in order to “harmonize” with the larger countries like France and Germany; that’d make them dependent in earnest. Keeping it low actually gave them a chance to become a far larger country than they’ve been, but the politicians are sellouts of their own people and not for money either.
Trump may recognize an English State...
Birds of a feather.
EU only came in in ‘92 and wasn’t in full force until 2002.
The “Troubles” were caused by GB.
I worked ex-pat from ‘92 until 2005.
None of the locals ever pointed a submachine gun at my head on my way to work. Every single day.
It was the Brit soldiers.
The Irish-Catholics that I encountered over 12 years in NI were fairly Marxist.

The couple dozen I’ve met here over the years would fit right in with the democrat socialist.
I know ONE conservative person in NI.
I turned him.

Nicely done. For the longest time years ago I thought it was related to my college days and what not, but Europe in general is out in left field and left field being out there like Pluto
Where did you get that from? The EU has been around since 1951, and Ireland joined in 1972. It’s the exact same organization, which merely changed its name four times. Even worse, the American political left supported its formation, via the American Committee on United Europe and other organizations.

So the communistic Northern Ireland Civil Rights Association had no role whatsoever, nor Sinn Féin who backed them? The riots they caused, and their anti-police violence, led to the presence of troops in the first place.

Your two prior falsehoods and omission of pertinent information make your anecdote suspect, with all due respect. Care to reveal what you did to provoke such reactions, or is this hyperbole?

Thanks, ‘gator!
No provision of this Constitution invalidates laws enacted, acts done or measures adopted by the State necessitated by the obligations of membership of the Communities—or prevents laws enacted, acts done or measures adopted by the Communities, or institutions thereof, from having the force of law in the State.That was the end of the Republic of Ireland. You allow an external body to have its laws contradict your own, thus being superior to your own and your own constitution is no longer the highest law of the land, you have given up your sovereignty. So any whining about the British Empire by any modern-day Irish is laughable to me.
