TRAITORS

What a convenient way of refusing to acknowledge every single point I've just made.

SDLP

AND

DISSIDENT REPUBLICANS WHO SHOOT POLICEMEN,

[longrunsthefox]

What I can't square is Sinn Fein don't recognise the Wesminster British seat but take part in the vote. It is like they kind of recognise it and are proud to call their members MPs. I think it should be one or other... abstain totally or go into Westminster. Frank Maguire and Bernadette Devlin went to Westminster although I am not sure what the reaction was to that. Certainly they got enough nationalist-Republican votes to get in. If Sinn Fein decided tomorrow it will go in and take their seats thousands who are against it would suddenly agree with it. People need to stop being sheep and hanging onto every word a party says.
Also is not the 26 counties an artificial state imposed by British rule and they recoginse that government by taking their seat...   just seems very contradictory, but maybe life ain't that black and white. (Just thinking out loud...)

Look Zap, no matter how much you deny it, SF accepted the default position of the 6 counties to be in the union with Britain whether sf spindoctors say it or not.

You have nothing to offer this thread or discussion on this topic in general.

It boils down to having a mandate. There is no better way to attack someone than get a mandate and use it to attack others who have no mandate.

They take their seats on both sides of the border. That's not a contradiction.

Says who?  You?  You are just another armchair republican who refuses to see facts for what they are.

SF have done things in recent years that they would never have dreamed of doing years ago, so I'd say before long, there will be a change of heart on this one as well. There'll be some way around it.

It's all a matter of timing.

There is no pressure coming from anywhere to make them do it. Espeacially not from the electorate. In fact it seems like a winner. The SDLP should try it.

No matter what you say nally, the fact remains Sf are still administering, implementing and even creating British rule in the north.  Whatever happened to 'No return to Stormont'?

Translation: that's a fairly damning list of shame you have there nally, but no matter what facts you adduce, I'll just stick to the only stick that I can beat the Shinners with in relation to the north... they took seats in Stormont. *

Things have come full circle when you're taking tips from RSF.

Why am I even being asked about the SDLP.  I wasn't discussing them 

Zap, I am not taking tips from anyone, I am just telling it like it is
