"There are surely some English ppl who do unreservedly hate the Irish - however, they'll likely be the same who unreservedly hate everyone: blacks, Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese, other football clubs, etc. Luckily those aren't the majority!"

They may not be in the majority, Grab, but such people have a tendency to actively seek out careers that affords them the opportunity to indulge in their favourite pastime.

And you can take it from me, that the vast majority of the British Army, the UDR, and the RUC, that I came into contact with enjoyed their work immensely.

In every newspaper I pick up, these days, there is always something about the growing rise in Neo-Naziism.

I find nothing new in these stories. My experience of it has been at the hands of organised Government, and its' all too willing foot-soldiers.

They may not be in the majority, but they're there where it matters.
