re pot/kettle: Celtic fans and IRA chants? My brother in Donegal gave up travelling on his local CSC bus to Glasgow for this reason: disgust at the mindlessness of it all. Of course the sectarianism exhibited by some Rangers fans is equally contemptible.

About half of Scottish Catholics now favour integrated schools. However even this might not be enough, a recent study in Northern Ireland found some children exhibiting sectarian traits at the age of three.
