- Nolan Show phone-in, two English people talk of what they think of the recent conflict from loyalists protesting and rioting about the piece of cloth which is no longer over Belfast City Hall.
Ironic that the Republic Of Ireland has arguably a better relationship with the island of Britain then Northern Ireland.
Keith its a pity they didnt in 1939 - 45 . When ROI stayed neutral as n Ireland fought and suffered along with the rest of the Uk . No blitz in Dublin . No aircraft or ships build either . Don't judge n Ireland on 2 minute news artical.
@@edwardtanner6393 Ireland successfully pursued exactly the same policy The UK had attempted. You remember your grubby little deal with Hitler in 1938? Despite Kristallnacht, the Nuremberg Laws, concentration camps? British revisionism is amusing.
@@eoinenglish7659of course Britain only went to war when absolutely necessary and part of it was self interest but they were part of the allies that destroyed the nazi s.
Which i think most historians would agree was beneficial to Ireland
@@eoinenglish7659 1938 being the operative item in that sentence. Nobody could possibly have predicted the bestial nature of German "National Socialism" and its development as a tool of warmongering and mass murder. You should note that there was full (if rather secretive) co-operation between Churchill and DeValera from 1940-45.
Not much "arguing" about it. I live in England, and it's 100% true. We'd ditch that fucking place in five minutes, if we could. But I doubt ROI wants it either.
My father was a Catholic born in Fermanagh who left NI as a teenager in 1938. He was pissed and spit on by Protestants on his way to school as a young lad. He fought in the US Navy in WW2 and always loved America as well as Ireland. His best friend in NYC was a Protestant from Co. Tyrone. When you're 3000 miles from home you're happy to meet another 'far down'. He didn't hold the actions of a couple of punks against every Protestant. It's time that 'loyalist' realize that Catholics were discriminated against for centuries and hopefully when the majority of NI is Catholic (sooner than later) they will treat you better than your ancestors treated theirs.
Or join the 21st century and drop christianity altogether.
Connor Dayman Sectarianism isn’t caused by the religion its caused by the people
they pissed on him?
Partation was because Catholic republican ira ethnically cleansed 40 thousand protestants hense they moved to Northern Ireland as refuge yet you want us in 6 counties to re-marry that thug that killed us living in 26counties Republic. The idea was leave us in peace and then live in peace Catholic style roi. The whole rc population lives aphreid faith school as vote ira sinn fein catchment area never ever mixing outside that. Even for gfa the republicans refuse to intergrate go state school and share and actually eat. study. Socialise outside groomed family. School. Church. Parents. They never shared life with other indigenous ppl there to know half the chips on shoulder are not accurate. Stop grooming and indoctrination in kids
@@Craig-gq4gb well said 👍
The British don't want us mate, we cost them too much money, we are all one people together. Even Carson didn't care about us, he used N.Ireland for his political career. He said "Belfast was a place I didn't know". It's all bullshit mate. We are all together on this island, one people, protestant, catholic and whoever else. One island.
Well said... Here's to one Ireland for all it's people's...
@@Bassetvids Randolph Churchill created Ulster unionism to play the Orange card against Gladstone who was expecting bipartisan cooperation on Home Rule.
@@patlynch9969 am well aware pal.
If Britain didn't care for Northern Ireland, she wouldn't have fought for it.
That English gentlemen has my utmost respect and I am an Irish Republican. Kudos to you sir.
Nolan pretends to be as neutral as possible but this proves he's just an Onionist cheerleader
"It is not a country full of hoodies, it is not a country full of thugs" ...Correct (it's not a country).
It's a Irish country and the miss that is bit
N.I. is not a country!!!
It's a wee province one of four ..
Paulie G
Part of a province*
Got to Love it! Mainland Britain don't even want a part in Ireland time for a change time for a rightful 32 County Republic the way it should be and always was!
They don't understand why NI is part of the U.K. And they don't particularly care! I have English friends that tell me about trips to Belfast and Derry and speak as if they were visiting the republic! - the English see no difference and would readily drop it in the morning.
AJBOB3 grow up you simpleton
Great point you make do go on
I think the consensus from the mainland is to allow self determination for the North, I don't think many really care too much for Northern Ireland to remain British. The second/third generation Irish living in England would support unification I suspect.
Cough cough, Britain only includes Scotland England and Wales... Ireland / N. Ireland aren't part of it (hence United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland)
If a loyalist, unionist goes to Britain he's seen as, called Irish there .
What's your point, even Ian Praisley said all Ulster-man are Irishman but they put themselves as Ulster-man first
Cant say Ive been called Irish too many times and Ive been living in England for over 25 years now
Damhnaic also known as schizophrenia what you’ve described and Ulster is still in Ireland even 6 of its 9 counties have been temporarily stolen. So answer me this if you’re Ulster men first and Irish men second where does the Brit part come in?!
sinnerboy oh I bet you have don’t lie I’ve been in England for about the same amount of time and they’re call me Irish even with the Geordie accent and they call all Protestant wannabes Irish too. The accent is the clue. It’s Irish
Sad isn't it.
give Ireland back to the irish
+Patrick Hanley People in Ireland voted for the Good Friday agreement - ie partition until people in the north change their minds, and they won't. Plus people in the south don't want northern Ireland.
+Gar Sm people in the south do want a unification of Ireland.
Brits only care about democracy when it suits them. Overwhelming majority voted for independence in the first vote that created the Irish free state, but it was gerrymandered and partitioned anyway so don't lecture me about democracy
cdog1990able lplolol prat
Have to say these two British politicians nailed it! No one neither cares or gives a toss in mainland UK with regards to 'Flegs and more so, some insignificant battle fought over 300+ years ago. You are the height of embarrassment! Apart from the other troglodytes and plebs similar in intellect to these troop of clowns!
Well, I have several friends from England and they don't want Northern Ireland to be part of the UK, they all feel bad about the crimes that Britain committed there and support a united Ireland. Every decent person does.
We should have a vote do we want Northern Ireland to be part of the uk 🇬🇧.I guarantee the answer would be No .
852 years its time for United Ireland with a Irish and Scot-Irish vote 🇮🇪
That border down the Irish sea means Ireland has one hand on the six counties. 😉
Do you mean a vote in N.I or a vote in Britain? Or RoI?
Hilarious ... Nolan asks a simple question and gets an honest answer and Nolan gets mad with the answer ... LOL
If loyalists respect the Union so much then why do they wrap the Union Flag around themselves when they go rioting,I’ve seen those images so many times.
Cos he clearly is a unionist
@@GJ1607.From the shankill
One fact both Unionists and Nationalists and indeed everyone in Northern Ireland has to understand is that England and mainland Britain does not care about us. So why should we care about them? Let's all come together and live as one.
UNITED IRELAND HERE WECOME🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Irish Republicanism is inherently anti-Protestant.
you expect me to forgive and forget, my family and friends were murdered by these scum and you expect us to forget it all just like i cannot expect innocent catholics who lost innocent family members to forgive loyalist gunmen, to forget their pain and suffering coz some fucking numpty like you want a united ireland, go catch yerself on and start tying your own shoelaces
Na
Im a Scottish Protestant and i think give Northern Ireland back to the Irish we are sick of hearing about your petty little problems and costing us a fortune the only thing that comes out of northern ireland is embaressment.
+floLAD123 why are you insulting all scots
Cameron Black He's hardly insulting all Scots. He's stating the fact that they are over-represented. Sturgeon is allowed to run wild fucking with Cameron with these threats of another referendum and all the while both Wales and NI are side-lined. With Scots and English jumping into bed with each other, it's no surprise any of them forget the existence of NI.
Prods shouldn't be in Ireland
Big Chubby Pandas That very secterain.
im from Ireland , cork , Ireland is one country im catholic and I coudnt give a shit what you are so I don't see what the fuss is about .and yes im ashamed of northern Ireland in my own country acting not like an english man would I would be rather talking to and english man rather than a northern irish man
I'm English and couldn't give a damn if they went to hell. NI is simply on the island of IRELAND is steeped in 1000's of years of Irish history.
@VIPICCB6 don't worry about anyone who's called gameonline. Enough said. We the majority of the British people here this side of the water support you 100% and I for one would fight to retain British Ulster . I wish people who don't know anything about NI would just keep quiet.
Northern Ireland and ulster are different .... british ulster is not a thing, go fuck yourself sir
@@Craigloves1987 "We the majority of the British people here this side of the water support you 100%" anything whatsoever to back this because polling clearly indicates the majority of British are pro-reunification.
@VIPICCB6 what did you 'go through' ? Steal land and opress it's rightful owners! Congrats.
@VIPICCB6 Go back and check my comments you dumb dumb. Contact my school. Off you go. Go ahead and contact me directly too as you stated you would. I'm on FB or Instagram. I'm waiting.
Unionists are in a minority in Britain as they are in their home country, Ireland.
hoopenhanger there own country ireland ? Check a map and give urself a slap
markyinbelfast xx take your own advice marky. You’re on the island of Ireland lad
Unionism isn’t in Ireland. Ireland is the republic. It’s in Northern Ireland. And unionism’s home country is England (U.K.)
I think its funny that English people think loyalists are disgusting, the English don't care about the flying of English flags why do the unioninst/loyalists that think they are british?? its tooooo funny,
oh Rodney, I bet you voted against Scottish independence, now that was foolish
***** The country is the UK of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is on the island of Ireland, not the island of Britain. They have Great Britain and Northern Ireland citizenship, Great Britain and Northern Ireland passports, they have heritage from Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and they're Irish, Irish born and they live in Ireland, because Ireland comprises 2 states - the republic of ireland, and northern ireland.
***** You're disagreeing with your own terminology. 'British citizenship' is just a shorthand way of referring to it. However, officially NI people have UK citizenship. It may be called Britain for short, but they don't live in Britain, they live in northern Ireland. Just as the French call them 'Anglais', even though, it's not technically correct. So they are Irish with UK citizenship (and also Irish citizenship), and this is true whether they regard themselves as Irish or British
***** "British Isles". Nah they were born and raised on the Island of Ireland and should perhaps fuck off back to their ancestral homeland.
*****
A lot of people laugh since the only people that are British are people living in Wales and parts of Western England.
Eastern England is Saxon and Jutes
Think Nolan is a wee bit off a bigot he's like the rest he doesn't want to move on
Any English person I met I got on really well with them. Nice people.
Same. The English are spot on. NI is a historical enigma not of their making
Yeah all the English I met are sound and none them have a clue about NI anyway.
Then again I'm in Australia now and maybe I'm just seeing the best of everyone as we're all far from home.
P Mahon yes, most English people are like most of us Irish these days, they just want to live in peace,!
As an English person working in NI most (always exceptions anywhere) folk from any background I’ve met are really great. I really rate NI and think away from the troubles people of NI have a lot about them we in England could learn from.
If I may say at as a foreigner, I don't understand why those loyalists consider themselves "British". Technically, the adjective "British" matches with the noun "Britain", which comprises England, Scotland and Wales. That makes the people living there British. So, the only British people in Northern Ireland are tourists from Britain. If anything, they could call themselves UK-ish, or Ulsterish. It doesn't matter if they feel British, they can feel Klingon or Ferengi, but it doesn't make it true.
that english guy is talking facts 🏴❤️
The union jack is not widely flown in England. There are a few flag wavers but they tend towards the cross of that Turkish guy St. George. Incidentally, if you remove that flag and the Scottish flag of St. Andrew from the union jack - what are you left with? Goodness me, it's the cross of the patron saint of Ireland, dear old St Patrick
Greek*
Youre wrong, it would be the white dragon....that is englands ancient banner after all, but then the same will happen with rivlary with the welsh, after all it is after a white and red dragon fought over a mountain in snowdonia...and beleive it or not scotlands ancient banner is the lion rampant..
Nice to hear Edwina Curry acknowledge N Ireland as an abnormal part of the UK. As to the other guy's point about N Irelander's flying their own flag. It's even worse than the union jack. They've actually purloined the Saint George's Cross, the national flag of England, and superimposed a red hand of Ulster surmounted upon a solidified white star of of David. Despite claiming to be Ulster-Scots-Irish, they fly neither the Saint Andrew's Cross of Scotland or the Saint Patrick's Cross of Ireland.
The flying of the union flag is no more than symbolic , it's not about loyalty to the queen it's more about Ulster plantation Scottish Protestant's showing their percieved dominance over the nationalist Irish Catholic population. the funny part is the English couldn't care less about any part of Ireland north or south and the unionist people of the north really don't give a shit about the people of London or any other county in England or Wales. Brexit has really brought out the contempt that the British powers that be have for the unionist population , it has become an embarrassment and millstone around their necks as proved by those interviews. let's be honest 99% of English people have no understanding of Irish history , certainly Edwina Curry wouldn't know her arse from a hole in the ground , I seem to remember her stepping down over an issue with eggs FFS .
Wrong
Why the hell does the UK want to be there in Northern Ireland anyways!?!?
Because the majority of NI see themselves at being British. You really should read up on things before you make silly comments like that. Though Canada has a long history linking itself to Ulster.
bishap global86 I was a Loyalist prisoner from the Shankill.I now know Irish unity is the way forward and it is going to happen,within 20 years definitely.
@@midnightmover2329 And Im the king of China, away ta fuck off ya bam ya
Nolan should wear a hoodie ,sometimes his own mask slips when he stacks his TV audience with loyalist riff raff from East Belfast and actually empathises with them even though a lot of them are lowlife drug dealers and thugs.
"The country that I live in... four days a week!" (In a faux outraged tone) 🤣🤣🤣
These Decent British People are so Right.!
Stephen Nolan the hardline loyalist,another bigot NI doesnt need.Not often i agree with a tory like Edwina Currie but i fully support her with this.I have no idea if the union flag flies over my town hall and being honest it doesnt bother me,im more interested in what goes on INSIDE the town hall.but im a taxpayer and i am sick and tired,as most English(bar the EDL mob) are of NI draining our money supply.
I hate being called "british" i was born in england therefore im english like scots are in scotland and the welsh are in wales
Hoping someone would say this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
+James Hingley But they are also British....
+revsin1886 so why dont we get rid of all the sport teams has england wales scotland and northern ireland and just have one great britain side then
James Hingley what and have wayne spud bake as our greatest footballer, no thanks, but tell me have you ever seen a Scottish or Welsh passport?
No but they should have there own passports like the english should
Having been to Belfast recently (August 2015) contrary to what people see on the news, which ever media outlet they please, my experience of that city was an eye opening experience in a positive sense. Bearing in mind I had never been to Northern Ireland, let alone Belfast, before. Not only did my experience go against what the media paint Northern Ireland and Belfast, but I will quite happily return to Northern Ireland in a heartbeat given the chance. I made a stubborn decision to myself to refuse to take a favourable view of either side of the divide there. A Nolan said, the majority of people are legitimately using their right to protest peacefully, but the media focuses on the actions of a minority to make the headlines which renders people's arguments irrelevant. When riots kicked off in England in August 2011, I held my head in my hands in despair, thinking "this is not what we need". It's high time that people in the media focus on how the situation, in Belfast particularly, has improved beyond people's wildest dreams as a result of the Good Friday Agreement. I take my hat off to the population in Northern Ireland, like I said before, when I get the chance to return I will grab it in a matter of seconds, the province is not given a fair chance on the world stage. I (in videos I took from my recent stay, feel free to have a look) am determined to show the best that Northern Ireland has to offer!
I've been to Northern Ireland many times over my lifetime and I agree that on the surface it has changed a lot since the Good Friday Agreement, but if you moved there and worked there you'd see that not all is how it seems. We still have a very deep sectarian divide and sometimes that does flare up, especially when the marching season comes around.
As tourists we generally see the best of a place, or at least we hope to. We don't have to seek employment or find a house, and in general we don't have to deal with the everyday politics of the area. We as tourists are happy as long as the hotel is nice, the food is good, and the weather is kind to us. The people we meet are generally friendly because they don't see us as a threat.
I do agree that Northern Ireland is not always given a fair shot, but we also have to realize that part of that problem is of their own making. It's not the Media throwing the stones or firing off petrol bombs, it's the locals, and you can't condemn the media for reporting it. They can't have it both ways.
You’re viewing it through the eyes of a tourist mate
I visited London doesn't mean I really know and understand London ... But I do know and understand Belfast and you can't fly the butcher's apron anymore lol
In all likelihood his ancestors are entirely British and not even a little bit Irish. There is no compelling reason for them to remain in Ireland anymore than Italian colonials in Libya or French colonials in Algeria.
As an english man I can say about 90% shares this womans opinion. We don't want NI give it to the Irish or make it an independent state if you have to. There are so many vids like this with a unionist presenter trying to convince the english that they care....we don't
Both Edwina and David spoke the truth! Edwina especially, with ignorance, poverty and tolerance
Oooh Nolan showing his true colours there... well, colour - Orange.
More trouble than they're worth
Go home British soldiers go on home....
Eh,they did,good Friday agreement,passed you by did it...
the people they claim to be dont even want them and i 100% certainly wouldnt blame them😊
Think people need to listen to these 2 people
I'd be happy if we couldn't fly the union flag here in Scotland :P
Leave the U.K. then if you don't like Scottish flags like the union jack.
+bristoled93 what even is the 'uk', it's just London and it's 'queen' sucking in the Scottish oil and taxpayers money. Scotland should have left when they could. Ireland may of had a recession but they are out of it now and they can enact their own laws and rule themselves. A much better way of life.
@@bristoled93 I love the Saltire thank you
Idiot
this Nolan guy is really not very sharp, is he....why can't loyalists understand that British people don't like them.....the average english person has far more in common with somebody from dublin, than they do with a nonsensical loyalist / protestant ? from northern ireland............................................
If it walks with a waddle and it quacks then it's a duck.
“I live in my country 4 days a week!”
Irish 🇮🇪 from the Republic of Ireland and English 🏴, Scottish 🏴, and Welsh 🏴 from Britain get on just fine. They don't have any issues with each other. Dublin and London have no issues. People want to move on. You have a bunch of radicals in Northern Island who live in ancient history. Protestant vs Catholic? Have you been to Dublin or London? People don't exactly wear religion on their sleeve. Most young people could give a fuck about religion. A little insensitive to hold Orange marches commemorating a religious war, is that the Middle East? Jesus. The West is becoming secular everyday. People are leaving organized religion in droves. I'm an American my father was raised Protestant in the German Lutheran tradition and my mother was raised Roman Catholic in the Irish Roman Catholic tradition, I attended a Roman Catholic High School, and a Lutheran Protestant College, and I'm either going to a State/Public university or Roman Catholic university for graduate studies. In the USA we don't care about old Ethnic rivalries. I'll use 2 friends of mine as an example. My one friend is a USAF Jet fighter pilot. He is English. As English as English can be. Red and White flag flying. Wears an RAF unit patch on his USAF uniform after he asked permission. His mom is from Newcastle. He is from a Protestant background. My other friend is Irish Catholic in background. As Irish as Irish can be. Tricolor waving. Tradesmen. When I introduced the two they got along great. His mom invited us all over to have food too. Well my English buddy married a girl from a Polish Catholic background, my Irish buddy married a girl from a German-Filipino Catholic background. Neither are religious. Both are agnostic or atheist. Both will not raise their kids in religion. This ethnic rivalry shit and religious nonsense is dumb. No one hates each other inherently. Its dumb. I've been to Ireland and the UK and had a great time in both. Quit the fucking Protestant war marches and join a labor March instead aside your Catholic neighbors. I could care less about these old wars. Ireland is pretty awesome and Britain is pretty awesome. I'm pretty fucking proud to have Irish in me, I have a Tricolor, and I am obsessed with English rock and punk. The Clash, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, the Who, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath. When the Rolling Stones or Black Sabbath comes on I blast that shit loud. So yeah you see I have Irish ancestors and I worship at the alter of the Prince of Fucking Darkness himself from England. Ah heh heh heh dung dung duh dung duh....🤘
I'm Irish Italian born in England and lived in Ireland for 10 years and married a women born in ulster nice country and people wish we could have peace ⁉ paul p England 💙 😎 👍
Nice sentiment
But Ulster is not a country
It's a province
One of four ..
One in five unless you accept the colonialist mentality which obliterated the province and Kingdom of Meath the seat of the Ard-righ
As are the Unionist free to leave the island of Ireland and go back to the country they crave so deeply. wherever that may be in mainland Britain. As liverpudlian J Lennon once put it so eloquently, Give Ireland back to the Irish, Don't make them have to take it away, Give Ireland back to the Irish, Make Ireland Irish today. J Lennon whom fought against injustice across all race colour and creed.
UNITED IRELAND HERE WE COME🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Speaking as a Brit. The reality is, the general public at least, we don't care about anything to do with Northern Ireland.
Nolan : a verbal 'bruiser', more heat than (en)light(enment.)
they dont I'm just saying that no one I know wants NI..I doubt scotland or wales would want it either after the benefits of a united ireland had been explained
Nolan did not like real Brits standing firm on the difference between the real British people and the Northern Irish that claim to be British !
Haha yes
NI prods make me laugh. They wave their union jacks around, swear allegiance to the queen and rant none stop about their Britishness. The truth is the English, who let's face it are Britain, couldn't give a fuck about NI or its people and they would ditch you in a heartbeat of the right opportunity came along.
It's not that we don't care about the people, most people like most people everywhere care about suffering wherever it happens, but most know they don't know the history and modern economic and practical issues enough and couldn't do anything to fix it even if they learned it all, and those of us who have educated ourselves still see that it's too complex and sensitive a subject for us to feel we have a right to loudly express any opinion on the underlying geopolitical disagreements most of the time. Most just wish all the people there the best, and judge any atrocities harshly whoever commits them, but don't think about it much because what are we supposed to do? Same as you probably respond to any other sad news story about conflict. You let yourself care from a safe psychological distance and get on with trying to be a good person in your own limited sphere of influence.
Instead of us having a vote for unity, why not let the English vote to withdraw? Loyalists would get all arsey and protest like a tantrum child, but eventually theyd get bored and settle, like the flag protests, like Drumcree, etc, their 'heritage' isnt exactly a loss to Britain, Ireland or anyone in the North with a brain and a job.
It's sad when the country your defend wants nothing to do with you.
Nolan your a loyalist at heart thats you problem.
I’m not even a unionist, I want Scotland out of the union,
But I do feel the need to apologise for the English being the Ignorant English,
They don’t even have the slightest clue about the conflict in N-I
ScottishDMcK thank u
Why should the English care about Northern Ireland??? It's not their problem they've got their own lifes to live. The only people who don't live in Northern Ireland but care about this pathetic conflict are absolutely losers like yourself who need to get a grip.
If you are born in Ireland, be Irish, if you love England so much go home to the Uk.
give the north back to the Irish, and say sorry to the Irish.
and for all those teens that live there, go and love any girl or guy you want, no matter if they are catholic or Protestant.
for get that old English hate!
Totally agree with the British. The real British.
good for that man he is right telling the truth,
Its not a country full stop.
It's not a different country it's a province of Ireland 🇮🇪
If use don't like it give the north back to Ireland...
I did not cause this...I was not alive when ireland was invaded or the battle of the boyne happend and guess what neither were you. Forget about the past the benefits of a united ireland out weighs the drawbacks for both Ireland and the UK.
wow, how does it feel to get rejected by the British. NI is pathetic
The Brits really don't give a shit about them, never have, never will.. Loyal, to that!!
This is actually hilarious pahahahahahaaa
People in the south have an even lower opinion of northern Ireland.
That's not true. I'm a Dub and have loads of respect for both sides in the north. It's a complex place but it's still Irish.
No we don't
Have love for those who see themselves as Irish no love for those British chavs though
best comment, well done sir. i saw a video of loyalists engaging in an ulster scots evening commemorating the rich and distinct cultural heritage that belonged to their long ago ancestors. it was wonderful to see a genuine cultural aspect to them that wasnt just marching. this is something that is worth preserving, unlike flute bands singing songs about killing people in the name of a religion (and i mean all christianity) that most young people on this island dont believe in any more.
lol Northern Ireland, the Mexico of Ireland and Britain
Clever woman speaking on this video.
No the people of "ulster" (is that all 9 counties or just 6?) dont have their own sports, songs, literature, etc.
Im Irish,born and bred in Belfast, im a catholic too and i assure you 99% of catholics dispise british culture, we're voting SF into goverment and stripping the british flag off city hall completey and putting the Irish tricolour up on city hall. We're soon to be majority buddy, the game is over for unionism
I don't know what part of England you're from mate or who exactly you represent but I live in Lancaster and pretty much all the English people I know here find the NI loyalists to be a laughable bunch of idiots. In fact a lot of them see Irish people, whether they're from the North or South of Ireland, as complete foreigners.
.
Haha .....the bits hate the loyalists in NI
I'm neither Irish nor British, but I think you are actually wrong. "British" refers to the people living in Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). Only the term "UK" comprises the north of Ireland, so if anything, you are UK-ish. I find it very unfair that, after the Irish people decided by democratic vote they want to belong to Ireland, they don't, because of loyalist terror threats. Also, the protestants there are settlers from Britain who stole the land, so why should they have a say?
David a clever guy.
The booze is cheaper in the North/UK than the Republic I'm told?. My 'local' in Wexford isn't reopening so I may head to Derry or Portadown. Cheers🥃 from Melbourne, Australia 👍.
Protestant Irish Republican Do you have the rest of this Broadcast? I'd be interested to hear what the Woman was going to say.
Nolan in that picture looks like bodyguard, who could sort out those loyalists bigots.
N.irleland are not part of Britain,they are part of the uk. There are only three countries in Britain,wales ,Scotland,and England,fact
It does indeed and there is a dwindling percentage of people who live in this part of the UK (Northern Ireland) who identify themselves as Irish as shown by the latest census (2012). Catholics and Protestants both are happy to remain separate from the ROI.
My ancestors have been living here for 11,000 years.
So how come youve got a jewish surname??
I'm English and grew up in the 80s and whenever I asked about the troubles nobody could really give me an answer as to why I was seeing what I was seeing being reported in the media. So as an adult out of my own interest I've read up a bit about the history of Northern Ireland, I would say I now have a bit more of an understanding of the situation than your average Englishman ( there's a little Welsh and Scottish thrown into my heritage too!). So it's a massive subject to try and understand, but that's what we have to try and do - understand each other. There's always two sides to these things and we have to try and move on and show love, respect and forgiveness.
@Alan O Brien and blessings sent back sir, to you your family and your people.
@Alan O Brien indeed, we're born where we are by pure chance - our circumstances, family, nationality everything we have, we haven't chosen that, but we can choose how we express that. 👍
can someone please tell me whose side is that nolan fella on? is it just be or is he on the british side because everytime he seems to stick up for them im really wondering like this could be just to make a balanced debate or is that hes views?

...Maastricht( 1992)was a game changer,designed to support a new currency by attacking sovereignty eg restricted inflation, deficits & debt.The UK withdrew.Ireland’s rights were again diluted by Nice (2001) Lisbon(2007) & crucially the Fiscal Treaty, requiring general Govt budgets to be balanced or in surplus;that annual structural deficits must not exceed 0.5% of GDP & provides for fines for those who don’t adhere to this rule...
Ha, ha, ha, ha poor unionists aren't even liked by the Brits!!!
The failed experiment...... Give that piece of land back.
"I'd rather they had their own bloody flag".....cough 🇪🇺🇯🇪☘️🤪
why don't you go back to Scotland if your so loyal to it
I've heard loyalists saying they hate the queen contradictions are massive here welcome to Northern Ireland.
Patriotism is virtue of the vicious...or the scared.
Thanks for the compliment but technically, Demiraslan is a Turkish name whilst the name Darius, I believe, is of Persian and Greek origin. Hope that cleared things up for you :).
Let's face it England is turning it's back on old allies and personally I am sick of English middle class insults towards people they owe an historical debt
Do yourself a favour and shut up kid. None of us care if they would call themselves allies of a country they have likely never been to, they speak for us as much as the BNP do.
We owe these extremist yobs no debt, and we will show no such thing as gratitude for them. 32 County Republic is the only way forward!
Couldn't have put it better myself.
Ironically you play a radio show where the participants want you to move on and stop yapping about the past and causing conflict.
I fully support the loyalist flag protest and actually I think there is quite a few people who would cause a scene in mainland Britain in similar circumstances
0 because don't care about you wee Ulster Scots or Irish natives.
Hi Reuven , you raise interesting points , ie that Loyalists continue to exist , and that the foreigners should go back home .
This maybe be from left field , but with a name like Goldstein , should you really be questioning anyones right to live on the land where they live becoz of the Golan Heights , West Bank and Gaza ?
Please explain that to me ?????????
