The quicker the nationalist parties just ignore the 'celebrations' the better...

With the place still in lockdown and no intention of opening up for large gatherings this hopefully will pass off like a fart in the wind, unpleasant at the start but fade away in moments

Not one brass farthing of public money should be spent on these "celebrations".

As we've been told bi-lingual signage, the ILA and the likes are a waste of public money which instead should be spent on health and education.

What's good for the goose...

I agree

I also think not one cent of public money should be spent on commemorations for the War of Independence, Irish independence or any of the participants in it

I am disappointed that the leader of the Catholic Church in Ireland thinks his flock should join in the celebration.

The way Rangers fans were allowed to celebrate I wouldn't be too sure on that.

Given that you're so anti-lockdown I'd have thought you would have been fervently favour of Rangers fans celebrating and a big centenary celebration of NI's existence?

Your post makes no sense

See the SDLP were in favour of it too. I can't for the life of me understand that position. I suppose they realised that it couldnt go through anyhow. Still.

It's typical SDLP

I've noticed a pile of flags gone up on the Moira roundabout. Is there like a set date or week that these centenary celebrations take place? Or were those just a pile of Rangers flags I saw?

Don't think they're rangers flags. They were there last week. What date is the anniversary anyway

[Milltown Row2]

Is there a day off for it

Aye sure why not if it's an excuse to have a few cans.

Flegs on lamp posts of all hues are like dogs pissing on a garden fence. Eamon Martin will be ignored on the centenary as he is on most issues. It would serve him better if he began addressing the abominable treatment of women and LGBT people in the church. We need married and women priests ASAP.

Agreed.
