Bigoted fool. It's narrowminded people like you that keep this country behind. I'm a Protestant and I have more respect for my neighbours pet rat than I do the Queen. A large majority of my friends think the same, and they are Protestant as well.
Perversely, I also have Catholic friends. !!! Chuck me on a bonfire and burn me. These Catholic freinds of mine couldn't give a damn about being part of the UK or not. I don't know what age you are, but I presume you have been brainwashed by your parents.
Oh, and I'd say you live in a pretty crummy town, like Gilford.

Ian Paisley is a small-minded bigot responsible for exacerbating a situation that was bad enough without him.

Ian Paisley, family friend - support, yes. Can't be bothered to go into the details right now, but I support his cause.

hahahahahaha.
That wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that the UK's entries are dire, would it?
Then again...they're all dire, but meh.

You're a moron.
People like you are the cause of the problem.

He looks old and frail. With any luck he'll die very soon. I shouldn't say that.

This is a case of only the next generation of politicians being able to back down the necessary distance to achieve some kind of lasting peace.

There'll be an agreement in 20 years or so.
Until then we'll probably have to endure the stalemate equivalent of a dwarven staring contest.

Get rid of religion.
Then the world will prosper/

What's N Ireland good for? Nothing. It's just a black spot, politically and economically.

I remember when I was young and naive and couldn't understand the situation. They should have just given all of Ireland back in 1922 (I think it was that year) but no they wanted the good industry in N.Ireland.

Now look at the mess.
