the main fall out from the Good Friday Agreement is the disintergartion of the more moderate UUP and its replacemetn by the DUP as the main voice of Europe.

Secondly Shin Fein have now repalced the SDLP as the main nationalist voice and still state it as their goal to get the Brits out of Ireland.

The DUP now seems to be suffering unrest over whether to power share with Adams and the IRA godfathers.

Now I wonder does Blair secretly intend to fragemtn the unionist community in Northern Ireland to make a united Ireland a stonger possibility.

It was after all Labout Policy until 1994.

Just a thought, I am sure honest Tone would never do anything that decietful.

Blair is not to be trusted. Even his own party don't trust him.

And he doesn't trust them.

Of course you can trust Blair - trust him to screw up :twisted:

Britannist

His successor will try to quickly distance himself from Blair, in my view.

If it was true though, why didn't Labour implement this when in power during the 1960s and the 1970s at the height of the 'Troubles'?

It was Heath's Conservatives in power when the closest act to 'uniting Ireland' - the 1973 Sovereignty Referendum - took place.

Ah yes but of course it was alwyas worded as uniting Irealnd by common consent and the unionist popualtion was always too powerfull, now they are gradually being weakned.

The EU's regionalisation will absorb everything.

Britannist

Europhiles in various political parties have tried to undermine the Union between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

The one thing that all the enemies of Northern Ireland remaining in the UK have in common is that they are all fanatically pro-EU.

And what an insult to the people of Northern Ireland that the europhile political opportunist and committed leftist Hain is Secretary of State for Northern Ireland.
