Ending partition won't guarantee equality or justice or the ending of queues at hospitals etc. However, at least we'll be our own masters and since in the medium to long term it makes sense economically we'll have a better chance at providing services for people. <br /><br />We can't have a situation where Leinster House simply moves north but even if that&#Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15029656112153509987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-91637994916461043702015-03-13T00:39:27.477+00:002015-03-13T00:39:27.477+00:00Darndale was on chanel 5 during the week on a prog...Darndale was on chanel 5 during the week on a programme called The Estate, and there was a house there with 3 generations of 1 family in it. Outside the back door was a huge pile of rubbish that this family couldn't afford to have lifted and taken away. It literally met them when they opened the back door, it filled the whole yard and had dead rats and other vermin in it.<br /><br />It seems Gerard.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03755318383331114316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-82649319941010871612015-03-12T14:17:54.330+00:002015-03-12T14:17:54.330+00:00Villiers stated the obvious.

Leave the north under direct rule until there is a change of demographics and Dublin and London work out how to transfer the wee 6 back to its rightful owner.larry hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837849309156970989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-85578783231107401772015-03-11T23:54:55.079+00:002015-03-11T23:54:55.079+00:00UK already pay for partition, with Irish migrants ...UK already pay for partition, with Irish migrants and keeping the north afloat.larry hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837849309156970989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-3493825406586009702015-03-11T20:55:19.039+00:002015-03-11T20:55:19.039+00:00I think Britain should pay a leaving town tax like...I think Britain should pay a leaving town tax like Mayor Quimby brought in the Simpsons. <br /><br />I am serious. They hold a responsibility as present holders of sovereignty of the North to enable a smooth transition. <br /><br />It will be cheaper for Great Britain in the medium term paying less towards a merger between the South and Northern Ireland than the extortionate amount they pay due Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15029656112153509987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-75767401222014179632015-03-11T19:38:13.578+00:002015-03-11T19:38:13.578+00:00People are indeed crying out for some form of mean...People are indeed crying out for some form of meaningful change. To link this political frustration with partition is a huge leap, in the dark. Cute hoors in the south and a choreographed crisis after phoney crisis gravy train in the north. Who would pay for the north should Dublin get the wee 6 back? I think Europe would be bailing us out in perpetuity.larry hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09837849309156970989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-82449826370782688802015-03-11T17:29:49.609+00:002015-03-11T17:29:49.609+00:00Excellent analysis of the matter at hand.

Rather than whinging on and on - like ballwasher-in-chief Colm McGinn and his band of pro-state lackeys on Facebook - who've nothing to offer but relentless criticism of a political arrangement they then tell us we must respect and support - for our own good - Jim is offering a credible alternative to the failure many are quick to point out without Sean Bresnahanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06842180620284317746noreply@blogger.com
