No one was listening when the IRA was blowing up civilians, but the English have forgiven them for that. Now there is a fragile peace, I think everyone wants the best for Ireland and for the peace to be permanent. The fact is that some people in Northern Ireland want to remain British, which is a problem. Beats me why we don't all try to get on.

I think that's a great post and I agree with a lot of it, but just referring back to other posts when someone says "you should be part of the UK" it's a stupid comment to make we like our independance....

I think you probably only think that because you're British though and feel as though you're on the receiving end.
