[rosnarun]

He's a twit and the other loyalists/unionists are twits if they don't respect the anthem and the country that their Queen respects.

No different from their mirror images in SF.  At the 2016 Euros, McGuinness didn't take his seat until the anthem was played and same occurred at Windsor Park with SF sport & culture minister Caral Ni Chuilin.

The obligation for the colonised to show respect for the occupier is not the same for the occupier to respect those they have occupied.

Is it true that they made you stand for "the Queen" in the cinema in Banbridge in years gone by? They say you'd get bate for heading out the door too soon. And I hear they're doing the same in India now.

Remember it well, you had to gauge when the film was about to end so that you could be on the move as the titles rolled and before the anthem was played.  Same in the Belmont Hotel nightclub.

Yes you would take you life in your own hands if you left early, scumbags outside waiting outside would call fenian bas***ds, only went a couple of times real s**thole, good job its closed.
Young Farmers used to hold concerts in our town. My mother used take us out just before the end and remember hearing "the Queen" as we walked up the road.

It wasn't just banbridge. Happened in belfast too.

The anthem thing is nothing. His comments on the investigations into the past are something else. They show a fundamental lack of understanding of the whole situation here.

Brokenshire didn't wear his colonial nor his poppy. Outrageous!!! Pair Esler is clearly a cold stadium for unionists.

On a night at the end of January it's cold for anyone.

In total agreement, I think he hasn't a puff of a notion of what is going on.
