Dissolve the United Kingdom?

[EnglishObserver]

Well actually the Irish government does have a say as regards the North because of the Anglo-Irish agreement and the GFA.

The AIA was superseded by The Belfast Agreement.

The BA was between The UK and The ROI and as such would not be binding on any of the four UK 'nations' should The UK collapse.

The North can never be an independent Country, its part of our Country, only its under a foreign jurisdiction for the time being.
The deal on unity has already been done, all we are waiting for now is for time to pass so that the Irish in the North East will become the majority there aswell and then its goodbye to British interfireence in Ireland.

Its way to late for Scotland to become independent economicially anyways. It can be politicially independent if it wants but it will always need English cash.

You don't come on the NI forum often do you?

Take down the Union Jack
It clashes with the sunset
And put it in the attic
With the Emperor’s old clothes

When did it fall apart ?
Sometime in the 80’s
When the good and the great
Gave way to the greedy and the mean

Britain isn’t cool you know
And it’s really not that great
It’s not a proper country
It doesn’t even have a patron saint
It’s just an economic union
That’s past its sell-by date

Take down the Union Jack
It clashes with the sunset
And ask our Scottish neighbours
If independence looks any good

‘Cos they just might understand
How to take an abstract notion
Of personal identity
And turn it into nationhood

Is this the 19th Century
That I’m watching on TV ?
The dear old Queen of England
Handing out those MBE’s
Member of the British Empire
That doesn’t sound too good to me

Gilbert and George
Are taking the piss aren’t they ?
Gilbert and George are taking the piss
What could be more British than
"Here's a picture of me bum"
Gilbert and George are taking the piss

Take down the Union Jack
It clashes with the sunset
And pile up all those history books
But don’t throw them away

‘Cos they just might have a clue
About what it really means
To be an Anglo hyphen Saxon
In England-dot-Co-dot-UK

To be an Anglo hyphen Saxon
In England-dot-Co-dot-UK

I don't think Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland would be able to survive economically on their own and the people there know it.

Why? If Luxembourg was in France and had recently became independent people would automatically say the same about them.

In the end its nothing to do with the people of the Republic.

You can hope that our great nation will die but you have NO SAY over the Union and aslong as the will of the majority is to stay in Union I am happy too!

The occupation of the six counties has a decade or two only left. If we can wait 8 centuries that time will fly by

Coming from the Jeremy Kyle show type who tries to offer the Northern Ireland Life and Times survey as a counter to election results - that's something

( BTW sharpcut, how many have you got to join your wee loyalist movement in your local pub - bet your still the only member )
