"Judging by the few people I know in the republic there is no great desire there for reunion, when it means adopting a load of gangsters as well," I think you will find that 'gangsterism' is quite rife in the Republic as it is, even without the formal 'paramilitary' influence and that such activities know no geographical boundaries anyway..., especially in an island so small. I think the reason they have 'no great desire...' is because they feel they are perfectly 'all right as they are, Jack'. B.
