Jim again attacks me, not what I say.
I have expressed the wish that all parts of Ireland should leave the UK, not that Irish people should leave.
My own dear daughter in law who presented me with my first grandson this year is Irish.
Two years ago a nephew married a girl from Down, (though as a protestant you might not regard her as Irish.)

Thousands of parades this year and the only trouble was in Belfast and it started before the march.

After a third consecutive night of trouble, Fr Donegan said: "I pulled stones out of the hands of children.

"It was a bit like a Euro Disney theme park for rioting. It was ludicrous."

Most of the young rioters were simply bored kids looking for some excitement in an inner city area where they complain of having nothing else to do.

Children as young as eight years old have been involved in the violence.

Sinn Féin's Gerry Kelly said dissident republicans, from the Real IRA, were orchestrating the violence.

At the height of the rioting women in Ardoyne found children playing with a loaded rifle and handed it into police.

Petrol bombs, fireworks, stones, and bottles were thrown at police after they tried to move rioters away from a parade route. Two of three hijacked vans were pushed at police lines.

The Ardoyne priest Father Gary Donegan said the trouble was started by outsiders.

"Myself and many people were looking at people last night that we'd never seen in the area before in our lives.

"It was as if people had been bussed into the area for this very purpose and that this was being very much orchestrated," he said.
