I would not like to see a united Ireland, when asked how far is it to the border most Dubliners would reply not far enough.

And yet you took your degree in “biology and biomedical science” in an English university.

I would imagine that attitude is largely due to there being a border in the first place.
I’m sure most people on both sides of the border would like to see it dismantled, not all, but certainly most.

Until you realise that a united Ireland means having hard core protestant fanatics in your midsts.
The Ian Paisleys of this world.

England created a monster. Best let them deal with it.

A united Ireland would be a wonderful thing.

Is this something you personally want?

Hm, I'm pretty sure Paisley's style of papist-hating has more to do with the Scots kirklets than with Cantaburgian catholicism.

Yes true 15th century England started it that’s why we cannot end it. Only the 21st century Irish can but before you take you clean Scottish hands to the hot air machine.
You’d better check out the east Belfast phone book, lots of Macs in it. Paisley, now where is that name from. 🤔
The only city in the UK with any real support for unionists and their paramilitaries is Glasgow, check out any old firm match and you’ll see the troubles at a football game.
