    this is promising and i believe it could work in Reality.

    Belief and reality are often very different things. PSF fostered beliefs among their following whilst negotiating personal profit and advancement in reality. Belief is generally manipulated to defraud the masses for the betterment of the elites. That is reality.

    I believe, sadly, that you are correct in all points

    Emerson is quite logical and can get to the nub. He is correct when he says that partition cannot exist without nationalist participation, he is correct when he sys the best way to end it is to withdraw participation in the imposition. I agrree, keep imposing demands and if they are not met withdraw from Stormont, the unionists knew the value of this tactic when they kept imposing demands. We know that the unionists are content with their lot when they stop raising the bar, the last manisfestation was over devolution over policing. Now it is our turn, give ultimatums over Irish language, when they cede that move onto something else. Keep it up until they crack and then we get what we want, the ability to say that the state established under partition has failed. Keep the British on the hook, do not let them say that it has nothing to do with them. In short destroy their Ulterisation policy
