My daughter attends a Catholic grammar school in the 6 counties. She arrived home this evening to tell me about a poll their history teacher did today ... Hands up everyone in the class who would vote for a United Ireland in a border poll. From a class of 26, only 4 hands went up in favour of a UI.
She asked me to guess before telling me the answer, I guessed 18, a long way off. The dominant theme for the vast majority of the class not voting in favour of a UI was having to pay to see a doctor in the south. A rather fickle reason in my opinion, and I do hope this generation of voters will be more in tune with the positives vs the negatives of a UI by the time they get their chance to vote ... which in all likelihood will be in the next 10 years.
By no means a scientific poll, but one which I found a little shocking for a Catholic school in the north.
