Is this why the unionists are so dead set against the maze historical museum. are they afraid what went on if put on display to e.g. School groups that it will make them vote Sinn Fein?

The unionists would like history to go over 1690, then pause until 1923 where it resumes. The Troubles would be explained as "all was rosy in the Ulster garden until the IRA sprang into existence for no reason and just went on a bloody rampage."

It's how they think.

Is there no hope for them eamon?

Two towns really. Nationalist bit and unionist bit. I did a fair bit of work about it, both halves, the funny thing is both bits a full of decent friendly people that is toward outsiders. it's just other lurgan folk they dislike.
Out of ten I'd give it 8. I like it.

The pregnant comment....

You also underestimate the Irish language vote, certainly where I vote anyway. They don't piss their pants over it for nothing, believe me.

Signs in Irish better than no signs at all.. rates bill in Irish.. I could live without.

My children are jealous of Armagh with a fcukin passion but don't know why. Job done. Now onto Spurs.

The place needs a dungout. Way to many pro Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael stoges about the place and it seems you have to be related to a former presenter or former politician or gay to get a job in the place. The wages are crazy for crappy presenters like fukn tubridy or that w**ker Marty whelan.

Perhaps a joint stand down? Arlene steps aside and Michelle also. John o dowd steps up and perhaps Simon Hamilton. After all were either or both ladies to become pregnant that would involve them being off work for a considerable time and deputies would be the order of the day. So I don't really see it as a problem. As for Irish language act.. its not a deal breaker for me and certainly not a vote getter for Sinn Fein imo

Is mrs brown funny? I can't stand the hoor

I think my dog is from Tyrone
Every time I take him down for a walk around our pitch and there is hurling match on
He has this bemused look in his face and doesn't seem to have a clue as to what's going on
He also attacked a young guy who came to training wearing a Derry shirt

Did the young boy give him the time honoured Derry to Tyrone boot in the balls

No the young lad tried to pat him in the head and the dog just dropped to the ground as if he'd been shot
Talk about playing dead he was in the zone alright

Perhaps you grew up surrounded by politics, with a couple of tv channels that had Paisley & Hume on every night. When you have instant access to a bucketful of shit directed entirely at your age group, and you're able to choose what you want on your own tv/ipad or whatever, boring adult stuff isn't really important.

True you nailed it bbc1 2 and itv the neighbours had htv. I'd like them to know some thing. It seems English history is the only thing their school teaches

So where to now? The great oak is dead and buried. Ger has serious likeability issues especially with the unionists. If Arlene is the catalyst for getting out the republican vote. Gerry is the bogeyman who'll get the garden centre unionists out like a nice weather forecast. So what next can two women get on? Is Michelle seen as gers puppet does she lack the gravitoce to carry popular Sinn Fein support?

Which subject in school would you expect a preteen kid to learn who Martin McGuinness is?

Also, in all the years since his birth, why has his da not brought up Martin McGuinness? Da must be a soup taking stoop croppyboy.

Martin mcguinness only died a couple of days ago tbh the subject never arose. All they're interested in is football hurling or wifi.. I suppose I expected them to be perhaps talking about this amount their piers
At that age I was used to paisley and Hume and the boys fighting on the telly every night

The gimp kenny standing in his office talking about Martin mcguinness' "terrorist past"  in front of a portrait of Michael collins
Why do Fine Gael like to link themselves to Collins

I,m worried the school is a hotbed of stoops. I fukn hate the place horrible hoors of teachers. I thinking it's no accident they don't know who Martin mcguinness

They usually tie their hair back in a ponytail so tight that their eyebrows are above their forehead then they wear a tight fitting shell suit that exposes their bulges and rides up their back to reveal their tattoo or bitch-stamp ruff ruff
