With a United Ireland vote possible, we should turn the page on our old symbols and create new symbols that everyone on the Island can rally around.
Here’s a concept:
St. Patrick's Blue + two gold stars representing the two main traditions united, with a nod to the EU flag.

“With a #unitedIreland, there is no guarantee we could deploy our ballistic missiles”, says Rear Admiral Chris Parry ... as if there was something bad about being unable to blow up the world. 😡

It’s also time for #Scotland to step up and push for a new referendum before it’s too late.
