Free State Minister greets Charles Windsor at Orange Citadel in Co Armagh

[T Fearon]

Yes,all you deluded United Irelanders,Heather Humphries,Free State Minister for Culture and Tourism was right by Arlene's side today as the so called Prince Of Wales visited the birthplace of the Orange Order at Loughgall today!

A United Ireland is just round the corner still.

[armaghniac]

Well, somebody is deluded here, I wonder is it us?

[foxcommander]

That is the dream gig for Heather Humphries

As Orange as they come.

I'd say the only different between Arlene and Heather is what side of the imaginary line they were born on.. humphries comes from one of the more "loyal" parts of Co Monaghan so seeing the British monarchy was probably a dream come true for her

[T Fearon]

I attach no blame to her,it's her background and culture! But it shows the extent of importance or lack of,that the freestate rulers give to a United Ireland

[Rossfan]

Marty McG Deputy First Minister of the 6 Cos met Charles Windsor earlier in some Unionist place.
He was along with his Joint Premier Arlene Foster.
Shows how much heed Sinn Féin have on the Democratic Socialist All Ireland Republic.

Still that oul €3 a week they saved the townie middle classes on water bills should hasten the day the SDR is established.

Would appointing a Protestant minister for the arts at least show we are not the Catholic state for a Catholic people that some of the dinosaurs think we are? Then again, we've voted to be an inclusive state by finally allowing same sex marriage. That'll scare ye off again to our wee bigotland.

Ah yes, manys a Shinner like Foxy like to play all morally superior to the knuckledragging loyalist types and their inability to hide their bigotry, but every now and again the same attitudes reveal themselves, as above.

I have no axe to grind with Heather.She was representing the freestate govt who agree that Britain should govern the North after all.

Yet Foster wouldn't step across the border to accept an invite the 1916 commemorations. Why does it seem that graciousness and diplomacy is only ever shown by one side?

[BennyCake]

I believe Cathal was in Port an Dúnain as well today.

As do Fianna Fàil, Labour, SDLP, Sinn Féin etc etc until ye lot vote otherwise.
Good Friday Agreement 1998.
Meanwhile the Shinner who supports right wing US politics shows his bigotry again.

Who wants to be a Royal?

[Rossfan]

Was he in a GAA club too?

Maybe he dropped into the Tir na nOg club for a pint.
