Britain wants rid of NI.
I’m still not entirely convinced the referendum would pass in ROI.
There would need to be a lot of answered questions first.

Would be nice to get it over with. Move on with “the future”. Turn NI into just another boring part of first world europe.
Instead of the continuous head counting of catholics and protestants. And endless debates about when it’s going to happen.
However, FFG seem to be dragging their heels on the main blockers of a UI; sláintecare and cost of housing. Because those are the two things the 30% of NI that are not “british only” or “Irish only” are looking at. And they decide NI’s future…
> it’s a class thing, it’s about whether you can heat your house,” says Niall Carson, 23, a Belfast barman.
So NI will join whichever Tory lead country that manages to be the least-Tory Tories!!!
Of course Mr UDA man Richard Stitt is talking about violence starting up again (doesn’t say by who of course) if there’s a UI. But he’s also the same guy who said…
“I have three girls aged 21, 16 and one and a half years old, and I don’t want them to suffer the way we did growing up.”
I hope not
Some of you are actually clinging in total desperation to the hope that the people of Ireland don’t want to unite the country “ if we can just mention the cost that’ll make the bad Fenian bastards go away”. Ok then TELL US THE COST” see how fast we all run away.
It felt closer back in 2018/2019 when Stormont had collapsed, Brexit negotiations were dragging on, and we’d passed abortion/gay marriage referendums. Unification polls at the time were better than they are now.
The session will be unreal if we do get all of Ireland back just imagine the piss up
Would people holding UK passports have to leave or get visas. Asking a friend here, I don’t actually know what is the agreement, and how it will work if you know, the Friday agreement becomes less relevant
They won’t be happy when they have to take part in another civil rights march because of lack of housing

Soon is a relative term.
Data said 2024.
