Do you reckon some posters on here are actually members of stormont assembly?

Made up nonsense is what that is.Do you think the majority of Catholics voting for Sinn Fein don't know what the political aims of the party are? Even the SDLP have voters who are in favour of a united Ireland Paddy:)

I would have thought that this poll like all of its kind is flawed. I don't want a united ireland until the majority of people in the north want it. If it never happens then I accept I'll never have it. It's reported as a suprise that 4% of protestant want a united ireland, is that not to be expected??! Overall nothing in this suprised me. The basket case that is the republic of ireland at the moment is not a very attractive proposition. What a shame FF the republican party did so much to damage the reunification of this island. And people like seamus persist in voting for them, unbelievable.

ball boy i can accept that you do not want a united ireland but i would prefer if you did not speak on behalf of the rest of the country by saying that the 26 counties as a whole does not want a united ireland.

Maybe we are still backward and need protection and education from Britain you know like all those other countries you mentioned on other threads.

Correct.

Or as Luke Kelly put it:

"For what died the sons of Roisin, was it greed?"

Ah, the same quote Gerry Adams used on his maiden speech in the Dáil.

OK who answered this survey? Which people did they pick for it because I certainly dont know anyone who answered it, also this survey is smaller than the ones that have been done in previous years

ah sure it doesnt matter what the people of the south want- its pretty clear that noone in the north wants it bar a few headcases. thank god it will never happen noone in northern ireland deserves to be irish in my opinion. this survey made me smile as i was right all along as always.

Surprised when I read this, didn't think it would be as high as 16%. Sinn Fein have well and truly pulled the wool over the eyes of their supporters, they follow the leadership like sheep when partition has been well and truly copper fastened. 40 years ago those who killed Policemen and security forces were labelled as heroes while now they're being ostracised and branded as traitors by the Sinn Fein leadership. Sinn Fein need partition, their very existence as a political party depends on it. They have the highly paid jobs in Stormont and, even looking at the 'Republicans' on here, they are more than happy with their cushy civil servant jobs. I don't like Sinn Fein but I respect how they have fooled their electorate for their own personal gain. We're as far away from a United Ireland as we ever have been, however some are too blind to see this obvious truth that's staring them in the face

well said PP sinn fein/ ira need partion because without it they are completely irrelevant, republican have lost all identity in the north and i suppose its a result of their own stupidity listening to the lies of sinn fein/ ira all along- they have made their beds and now they must lie/ rot in them. i would say you would get better odds on ireland rejoing britian than a united ireland. this all makes me happy as we have finally washed our hands of the north as the survey indicates its a complete no runner and rightly so

again littleboy, your bitterness is blinding you, the way the good friday agreement is set up states that the 6 counties will only rejoin the 26 when it is the will of the MAJORITY of the people of the 6 counties. and that was voted for by the people of the 32, which, if you are what you claim to be, are part of. MATE. and as ive asked you before which part of belfast are you from?

Ta he is not even a republican so don't give him any credit as he is most likely a fabrication,just like his friend Littlerod.I know we differ in some ways as to what the larger republican movement on the island is and should be doing,but at least we are wanting the same future ultimately as opposed to Plunkett who is an avowed partitionist.

your right evryone will get their say but the british people in northern ireland will have their vote and the irish people will have theirs in a seperate refferendum - what part of YOU CANT CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION WITHOUT A REFFERENDUM do you not understand? I mean this is primary school stuff. im not from belfast im from mayo, its funny that when someone isnt as biggotted as someone else they must be british - ye are a funny lot
