I wonder how the Loyalists up here will restart the kerfuffle after the Duk is buried; Arlene blowing on a whistle or a slow wind up to setting Larne ablaze (a man can dream).

EmmyOk posted:most unionist don't care about England and England has openly not given a poo poo about NI for a decades at a government level let alone the public. Unioninsts want the union and partition maintained to keep the supreamcist state they built up with starting with James Craig while the republic and egnalnd just recused themselves from any input They sacrificed three of the nine counties to keep their little enclave for 100 years, what do they do next?

Us in Northern Ireland are extremely glad that we're not yet as buggered as the rest of Brexitania and a pox on anyone down south who wants to join this insanity.... tell them to move to England and have done with it.

OwlFancier posted:Well I did wonder from the name. They are what you would get as a unionist party if all the loonies were gone, the ability to choose a "normal" party has much greater appeal than it used to be. Unionists who voted remain will be more attracted to them than last time. Here's me, a nationalist, putting Alliance as my first preference on Thursday, helping them helps diminish the DUP in my area (probably won't but if the % gives them a migraine then my job is done). I used to vote SDLP but they've lost their mojo locally over the last decade.
