That has more or less now stopped so families who would have assumed to basically be on a gravy train without the effort to educate etc now will be no more.Basically that's what happened to the Shankill. Generations of families were guaranteed a job in the local factories, and across town in the shipyard. They didn't need to worry about education and over several generations the idea of educational attainment died out. When fair employment eventually kicked in they were left floundering.
One of the biggest enemies of the "PUL" community is the DUP. It does nothing to lift up people in poor areas etc.
