Yes.

I love hearing the opinions of foreigners on this subject, especially Americans. Their understanding of the issue is very impressive and their take on the troubles always intelligent and nuanced.


In answer to your question, Yes. If they vote for it, sure. However it would cause chaos though and would leave a lot of the Scottish/British hardliners very unhappy. England would obviously be quite happy to be rid of such a economic and political burden.

I don't know what's the situation there but I'm in favor of most pan -isms ,unifications of same people & autonomy of unsimilar ones so I'd say yes.

Recently they did a survey in NI and because of Brexit, many people in Northern Ireland mentioned that they wanted to join mainland Ireland.
Northern Ireland and Scotland were the 2 territories that voted overwhelmingly against the bretix and knowing that the bretix has won them left very disappointed.

Currently the conflict is not very serious but in Northern Ireland there is a division between the original Irish and the british Irish (usually Scottish-Irish and English-Irish) the British Irish want to be part of the United Kingdom on the contrary of the Irish originials also there were religious conflicts between Catholics and Protestants.

Yup, we shall have to wait until bretix is over and then they can see if they like the new arrangement.

If the people on both sides want it yes but nothing with violence or against the will of the people. I was against scottish indepedence though because I want to see a unified and strong Great Britain. I think Ireland should actually have closer ties to Britain then there would be cooperation with Northern Ireland too and it wouldnt really matter anymore. The Austrians and Germans always wanted to be unified and they didnt achieved it but now through EU there is no border between the two and a common currency.

One question, were you against any division in Europe?

Im against division anywhere. Im for peace, solidarity etc. As for europe there were often divisions and hence war and I think thats bad and it is good in the past 50 years there was no war.
