"There are expectations too that Sinn Féin would use Plaid Cymru and SNP victories next month to boost its demands for a poll on Irish reunification by 2030, making that central to its Northern Irish election campaign in May 2027"

It's time to undo Colonialism in this islands. The Westminster system only works for some parts of SE England.

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.

What do you think?

“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. 😡

Unionist Lord Paul Bew had invited Parry to address an informal meeting of MPs and Lords in Westminster. It was pure 19th-century imperial logic, viewing Ireland solely in terms of its military utility to Britain 🤮

THREAD: No no no. 😡

Derry-based writer #PaulGosling suggests that a #UnitedIreland might involve joining #NATO and the British "Commonwealth", writing a new constitution, and allowing everyone in the 32 counties a choice of Irish or British citizenship. 🙄

Time to put a stop to this Irish Times agenda. 😡

I’ve never been a fan of reactionary calls for a united Ireland, but given the dark path that #Britain—more specifically #England—is heading down, we Irish now have an obligation to protect the people of #NorthernIreland. Otherwise, they risk facing a purge by far-right extremists targeting republican nationalists, and in particular, people of the #Catholic faith. It’s also time for #Scotland to step up and push for a new referendum before it’s too late.
