I don't think a united Ireland is a fantasy. We are at the end of a credit expansion system and there is going to be a massive crash. Like 100 years ago. 3 empires collapsed. Russian, German and Austro-Hungarian .  When new countries were formed. Chaos is when anything can happen.

Must have been some night if you're still drunk at 9am the next morning, Sea.

So do you think a UI is a complete fantasy and there is no chance of reunification?

It is a fantasy when not one party is showing the economic realities of reunification. Where is the money going to come from? The Tories are not going to continue to subsidise the North especially after Brexit.
The next election in the Republic wont be won by any party spouting about reunification. It will be won on economic grounds.   Sinn Feins tax policies will not attract votes from middle income earners

The economic realities won't be a deal breaker. This place is costing the British exchequer 9 billion annually with no chance of it being reduced. If a UI was feasible the UK would happily pay 5 billion a year for a transitional period and Ireland would have to pay the rest my guess  being this would come in the form of a block grant form Europe. Once the two economies become more aligned and NI is getting some international commercial investment due to alignment with the south's attractive corporate tax rate then the deficit should be gone.
All theory yes but more than plausible.

There are options there that are feasible and certainly the British would be prepared to pay some form of support. It is our own politicians North and South who spout about unity but have not brought forward any realistic thoughts on development of agriculture, forestry, fishing, tourism, rural development etc that would convince people that unity is an economic possibility without turning the place into Zimbabwe.
Are the parties who will form the majority prepared to guarantee the rights of the minority i.e. cherish all the children of the nation equally?

The parties who form the majority better treat everyone equally as happened in the south or they would be losing my vote pronto. Nationalist in the north that have been subjected to the tyranny of unionism have an obligation to take a higher moral ground or else we are just hypocrites. Unionists in the south at the time of Independence were treated as equals when the republic was formed and that's the way it should be. When or if a UI is realised the unionists Protestant vote will have their voice in a new government as any democratic system should function.

If anything a strong united party across the Unionist/Loyalist spectrum would have a very powerful voice and could hold the balance of power continously and be a coalition partner in government. It is unlikely tht FF FG SF SDLP Labour PBP (Healys Rae) Socialists etc would unite in total opposition to Unionist/Loyalist.
I wouldnt be overly concerned about the political operation but the ability to maximise economic opportunities and have prosperity and decent living standards for all.
