I think it is inevitable that the freestate will join the commonwealth.We are now in effectively a post nationalist Ireland with revisionism pointing towards the proposition that the 1916 Rising was a fatal error.
Pearse died so Irish people would be free to choose the way of life they wanted ,
He had his own idea of what that was but as a republican he'd have know that future generations would make their own path .
I'm sure it was never part of his plan the he would be a dead monarch ruling from beyond the grave ensuring nothing would change. in Fact id reckon his biggest regret would be I'm writing this in English

So what would you like to see happening?

Am happy enough with status quo.I am comfortable,healthy have a good standard of life,and wouldn't swap it for the unknown of a united Ireland in which I am not wanted anyway.

You are very easily pleased, for someone always giving out.

I as you know now firmly subscribe to a Northern Irish identity on the basis that  a)We in the North have more in common with each other than with people across the water or down south and  b) Neither London nor Dublin wants us anyway.

When you recognise and accept these two irrefutable facts it's amazing how at ease and dare I say liberated,you feel!

You don't understand.The point of being N Irish is that you don't tug your forelock to anyone,not London, Not Dublin who jointly have betrayed all of us here for far too long

Does your employer know about the stuff you're putting up on social media?  We keep telling young people to be careful of what they put up on FB etc and here's you, an adult, constantly posting nonsense, a lot of it during work hours.  Apart from posting on social media and constantly doing pointless competitions do you actually do any work?
