Don’t tar everyone in the wee 6 with the same brush, it’s only a minority of dinosaurs that can’t look to the future. Only one side indulges in a “marching season”.

I agree 100% Jamie. One of the proudest things I’ve ever done with a vote was vote in fovour of the Good Friday agreement. I did it because I wanted to support the decent hard working ordinary people that are stuck between the extremes in the north, of BOTH communities. Lets not forget these people, they deserve what ppl in the Republic, England Scotland and Wales take for granted and that is a stable and safe society where their children have access to a decent education and prospect of employment. Those on the extremes are the only ones with something to gain from the continuation of the troubles.

actually I shouldn’t refer to them as dinosaurs, as a lot of them don’t even believe in the giant creatures that roamed our earth hundreds of millions of years ago i.e. McCausland, Campbell et al..

“On both sides”.

Sorry but nationalist and republican parades make up a mere 3% of all marches that take place in the north. I think there was just trouble at just one of these last year, and that was when unionists actually marched into a nationalist area to protest the parade (which was ironically in memory of Henry Joy McCracken, a Protestant Republican)

Conversley, 66% of parades are by loyal lodges (Orange Order, Black Preceptory etc…), That’s 22-times the amount held by nationalists anre republicans! And a fair number are contentious as they march through areas where they are not wanted.

The rest of the parades and marches are other civic processions (sporting events, community parades, Patrick’s Day etc…)

Sticking your thumb in your neighbors eye wont solve anything Mark.

Ronan you clearly know little about the northern situation..

no Ronan not at all, just respect your land…

Patrick the So Called Queen doesn’t fly the flag all year round FFS unionist domination is over for good

The idea of an individual showing undying loyalty to a country is the height of nonsense. We are conditioned to respond to flags, anthems and ‘histories’. This is how our ‘masters’ keep us in control. The idea of the nation state is less than 300 years old. This will pass just as the city state, empire states, and monarchies have passed.

Patrick, the perception that the idea of a nation state being less than 300 years old is a fallacy – one put forward by inaccurate historians, globalists, supranational integrationists. All you need do is look at Scotland – a nation state which existed as such from 843 AD to 1707.

Thank God we’re surrounded by water, a country since 6,700 bc..

Brian, was Scotland a nation state or was it a feudal kingdom with borders and population limited only by how the strength of one tyrant compared to the strength of the neighbouring tyrants.
