Why is a film about historical events set in Cork in the Northern Ireland section?
It's cultural imperialism. Loach imposes his own socialist viewpoint on the Irish political situation, and uses our history for his own polemic. Socialism was a very minor element in the rejection of the Treaty, not that you'd know it from Loach's film.
The highlight of that film being released was the hysterical reactions of Simon Heffer and the other torygraph scum
The Massachusetts of the Puritans is as dead as Caesar, but there is no need to mourn the fact. Their successors-the Irish-had letters and learning, culture and civilization when the ancestors of the Puritans were savages running half-naked through the forests of Britain. It took the Irish to make Massachusetts a fit place to live in.
