I must say, Observer, that I do tend to agree with Keith on this one. Just saying that something is shite does not make it true. I have not spotted anything particularly anti-republican in Keiths posts on this thread. Anti war, yes. Anti violence, yes. Anti republican, Hmmm? Not convinced. Are there any such examples?

As to the other question. Can I hazzard a guess that Sinn Fein want a united Ireland? Maybe that answers the question as to why they are not well supported in the South? Who in their right minds would want to take on the hot potato that is currently Northern Ireland?

Cheers
