An Post ashamed of our history?

Well if you are aware it was not partitioned then, why assume that issues of Rising memorials are an issue for the south? As for Partitionism, I personally think it is not an issue of what the constitution says. Where it should be continually challenged is in people's attitudes. This is getting away from the discussion of the thread.

Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it

A platitude, both cultures know their history and both seem to keep making the same mistakes. I'd rather use sound judgement than sound bites.

Read Breige Gadds piece in the IN yesterday, some in unionist circles would need to look back at their recent history and hope not to make the same mistakes as their grand parents.

Well as i say i often do refer to it also as the 26 counties. Unlike you however, i would never say something like 'Eire has 26 counties'. In my opinion as a republican, this statement forgets those Irish citizens north of the border who regard themselves as Irish and from Ireland/Eire. When I hear 'Ireland' or 'Eire', I think 32 counties. Anyway this is getting off topic.

When I was living in Australia I had an Irish passport, did that make Victoria a county in the Irish state.

How clever. Touché
