For the information of folks who may not be familiar with "Gillian's" icons

The late Sir Basil Brook is a shining example of the type of person this country craves for modern leadership -

"There are a great number of Protestants and Orangemen who employ Catholics. I would point out that Roman Catholics are trying to get everywhere… I would appeal to Loyalists, therefore, wherever possible, to employ protestant lads and lassies." Sir Basil Brooke. Unionist Minister, later Prime Minister of Northern Ireland.

also a definition of Unionist "democracy" -

             "Politically, Ulster would always send a majority of Protestant MPs to Westminster, and there would always be a majority of Unionist MPs in the Northern Ireland parliament. However, control was also established in local councils, even when the Protestants were in a minority. The vote was restricted to householders and property owners (thus ruling out many of the Catholic poor). Boundaries were redrawn to secure the maximum possible number of Unionist councillors. This process was called 'gerrymandering'. From Ireland a Divided Island

I agree with Giok "Religious apartheid is as obnoxious as that based on the colour of a person's skin"

Currently the BNP is electioneering on the basis of Islamophobia using scare tactics and photos of the London bombings
