You've had the reasons for that vote - fully documented
You may add to that that the referendum was held at a time when the state was at war with Britain
All academic anyway - the situation at the present time is there is around a 25%difference between those who want Irish unity and those who don't, despite the fact that the Unionists still make up the majority of te population - the massive leap is indicative that the time for ending partition is well past its sell-by date
Partitioning countries is the legacy of a (thankfully dead) system
NO COUNTRY SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO PARTITION ANOTHER
The hint is in the name IRELAND
Are you really defending this practice, or this more of your nit-picking ?
Brexit has more-or-less rung the death toll on the partition - and quite possinbly The 'United' kingdom as a whole
Jeez - the Empire has never died in the the minds of the Little Englanders
