Is it time for a United Ireland?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 жов 2024
- After a recent opinion poll revealed that over half of the population of Northern Ireland would support it within 20 years, we went to find out how much support there is for a United Ireland on the streets of Dublin.
That fella seems to be a bit “special”. How is it logical to make one country into two countries but it’s not reasonable to make the same two countries into one country? 😂
To answer the question of turning 2 countries into 1.
Simple, Northern Ireland is not a country. It is 6 of the 9 counties of Ulster.
@@gerardflynn3899 So the island of Ireland is one country?
@@jujutrini8412 I think what he means is Ireland is a nation state now. If you add Northern Ireland it becomes a different kind of country where there are two nationalities within one country.
Definitely special
@@jujutrini8412 in fact yes it was, and then split in 1922. The difference between the Island of Ireland and Island of GB is that Ireland was 1 country that split. GB was comprised of 3 separate countries that joined together forming the UK.
As a Welshman hope Ireland unites

To the lad that said against, you aren't combining 2 countries. It's one country
I thought that too, what a clown he was.
Yeah, I was thinking would he ever get his facts straight. What a dope.
It's one island, the number of countries is subjective.

What do you actually want and same for the Mc Kenzie guy in the video! You cannot go on sitting on the fence as 26 county partitionists forever!
One of the most dangerous attitudes for an Irishman to take is that Irish re-unification is inevitable and will eventually, some day, fall into your lap like a gift. Irish re-unification is not inevitable and will only come about through working a plan like the Germans did when they re-united Germany over 30 years ago.
Absolutely, now is your chance. Do not squander it. 🇮🇪
Exactly we have waited the best part of 1,000 years for this day there is still alot of work to be done to ensure this is the future
The journey has 3 steps
Step 1 get a majority vote to back yes
Step 2 Crush any Loyalist Terrorism campaigns
Step 3 alot of work to economically unify the country lot of business will need to be reworked roads signs etc
Lot of cultural things will need to be changed
It was the Irish government of the day that helped Germany reunite and the German people and German politicians to this day have not forgotten that!
Germans east ones not entirely happy since reunification however wrong to compare Ireland to Germany. It is not
@@kurtpunchesthings2411 if waited 1000makes a lie of poor wee victimhood. Hands up who since 1922 brainwashed ppl to believe untruths
It was funny when the fella said no because you cant join 2 countries together it should remain separate 😂using the yes argument to say no😂priceless..
Its like that with ‘two different countries’ because ireland was invaded & occupied. You shouldnt have a go at the people from britain who moved to ireland as they were most likely used by the people in power but one method that is used to displace societies & civilizations is to move a large proportion of another populationi into the home of another through migration. Alot of the migrations that have happened throughout history & are currently going on today are highly organised by elite power in control.
To be honest it sounded like he didn’t know too much about it and just rambled on.
NI isnt a country tho lol
@@steve00alt70 It’s a constituent country.
@@steve00alt70He might not ever been in the North. Was he thinking it's a separate island?
Like Iceland
It would probably negatively affect some parts of the country in the short term financially but in the medium and long term it would benefit everyone.
So - yes, I'll take a bit of short term pain for long term gain for the nation.
Yeah but all of Ulster would cost the same as Connaght to run in terms of the civil service with bigger tax revenue, so not really that bad & the british figures don't tell the full story. Plus there will be massive benefits of expanding the Dublin Commuter belt.
@@roryoneill9444 also the brits would have to foot the bill for any of the outstanding pensions owed so that is a massive bill we don't or won't have to worry about
I think you are mistaken on your assumption. When Ireland became a Republic who paid the pensions ? Dublin can’t afford a United Ireland. Coveney said he expects help from the EU and Britain. I think you will see that no one helped Germany and it’s reunification and that will be the precedence to work off. UCD put the cost at 30 billion Euro a year. Please explain how 6 million people will be able to find an extra thirty billion a year ?? On top of their current tax takes
@@michaelfitzpatrick6264 there have been many studies, you're just chosing the one that suits your point.
A Canadian university done a study that showed that the islands economy would boost by 35 billion within 8 years and that was 2016 money.
The UCD report was 2019. I hardly think it’s biased ?? The next question is who is the biggest employer in the North ? And how will those jobs be replaced ? During the tens of thousands are not working I am sure they will be expecting Republics social welfare payments but still free health care and education ?
I will vote for the Reunification of Ireland.
Time to end the divisional Past, and also end the interference of Westminster Politicians who know nothing of Ireland or any of its People's .
There is pros and cons to a united Ireland. For me however, living on the border the answer can only ever be a yes !
no pros in reality just in peoples hearts

Better do it soon while there are still enough Irish in the south for the north to unite with.
You are allowed to not be racist and bigoted. Also such a hypocritical take for Irish people to use.
The Republic of Ireland has history against the north? I believe it was Ireland against Britain until 1921 then the north nationalist portion against Britain.

Yes... It's time to put Ireland back together.
As a liberal Northern Irish protestant, who now lives in England, I'd be happy to have a united Ireland, provided it's inclusive, and NI prods are welcome too. Now that Ireland is no longer a catholic theocracy, governed by priests, I doubt protestants need to fear anymore 😊
Our Protestant community? Never ever had anything to be concerned about! Unlike the gerrymandered apartheid state that the Loyalists community put upon the indegenous Irish Catholic community.
Both sides had their own problems, poor me don't wash your nonessential attitude. The EU control Ireland not the Irish, wake up. Only time the EU takes back their money.. 160 billion. In debt now. 👌
I agree, even as a born and breed Catholic, a church I hate based on fear and hypocracy
I think the Northern protetants would be a great addition to Ireland united......and they already have established tbeir own traditions and place on the Island...alls that is needed is mutual respect...
Protestants need not worry. Loyalists however

@@davidstokes5905 it''s one country divided in two. The two partition states are not countries
You have to have a united people of Ireland before you get a united Ireland.
Let the people speak then .. let's vote north and south.
You can't get there without a United country first
I live in the North but despite a bumpy start I would like a 32 county United republic. My. Main question I ponder about to myself is whether I should vote for Fianna Fail or Find Gael, I don't think SF, the SDLP and especially the unionist parties could survive in the new political environment. But that is hardly a loss.
Sinn Fein would be the largest party. They're the only all Ireland party. The two establishment parties in the south have no representation in the North and it will prove costly for them when Ireland inevitably unites.
I would like a United Ireland where everyone has a voice after unification including the present unionists.
Here in Australia we appear to be heading for a No vote for an aboriginal and Torres Strait Island voice !
Of course 100% there should be a United Ireland. It should never have been divided in the first place. It allowed the Catholic Church take a hold in the south and the Protestant Church in the North.. Any person I've met from different countries around the world want to see our country reunited also..The sooner the better 🇮🇪
The sooner the better as right!!
I can sort of see the logic of people in Scotland and Wales wanting to keep the mainland in some semblance of a union, however toxic and dysfunctional, but I would very much like to have better understanding of why anyone in Northern Ireland would choose to remain part of the UK over unification with Ireland?
The answer is simple.
Most people in Northern Ireland are ethnically British. Their ancestors originated from Britain, hundreds of years ago.
Because of this, they retain a strong British nationality. And it makes sense for them to favour political union with Britain.
@@raymondhaskin9449 the tide has turned and the nationalists have the majority now, this is why it has become such a hot topic of late and Brexit followed by the protocol has accelerated this further

As an Englishman I'd be sad to see the union breakup but the opinion and feelings of each individual country within it must come first. I think the idea of all 4 nations being united and sharing a prosperous and peaceful existence sounds great but in reality it now just resembles a toxic marriage with Scotland and Northern Ireland rightly not happy with the status quo due to their treatment by Westminster. Welsh independence calls are also growing. I think the sooner all 4 nations go their separate ways and put all this behind us the better.
Northern Ireland not even a real country just British occupied part of Ireland most of province of Ulster 6 of its 9 counties that British Protestants wrecked

I've been a die hard nationalist, and around the time of Brexit a die hard unionist. I have a well rounded view on this whole subject, and can tell you I love Both countries I really do, but not for their politics, for that I hate them both. Ireland has a real issue with its obscure love for Brussels, to the point of Stockholm syndrome; btw (guys you didn't become rich because of EU, you dont owe them anything, you became rich from your own tax and education system, dont give them the credit, why hasnt this phenomenon of wealth creation came from any other member who joined the EU?) And the UK I'm sad to say has died in all but name. In one more generation Islam will be the dominant religion, London hasn't been an English majority city in 20 years, and most of its major cities are following suit. Ireland is following that trend, and for every bad thing the British empire had done to this Island, it will never be as bad as what the EU could do as it has done to England, made its own people a minority in their own land, truly destroying it. Only if Ireland would leave the EU, would vote to re-unite. Here in the North we are still safe from the migration invasion that has hit England, as they continue to still want to go there. If we joined the South we would continue to take what the EU sends to Dublin. We're still Irish or British here in the north In 30 years we could be more Irish and British than Ireland and Britain, safer too Ironically
'Ireland has a real issue with its obscure love for Brussels, to the point of Stockholm syndrome;'
Ireland has no issue with Brussels, it is a committed member of the European Union. Ireland is not kidnapped member state that suddenly identifies with its kidnapper as 'Stockholm syndrome' suggests, it is the only state to have voted on every single stage of its membership from September 1972 onwards. The Irish own their membership in a way you never did in the UK.
'btw (guys you didn't become rich because of EU, you dont owe them anything, you became rich from your own tax and education system, dont give them the credit,...'
Utterly bizarre comment. When the British withdrew in 1921 they took their money with them. It was only when Ireland joined the EEC that Irish government has access to transfers from Brussels to invest in education, infrastructure and to modernise the economy. The future is a multi-lateral one, that is the future of Europe
'And the UK I'm sad to say has died in all but name.'
Agreed. The break up of the UK will come when the English grow a pair, admit they are a national and learn to stand on their own two feet.
'In one more generation Islam will be the dominant religion, London hasn't been an English majority city in 20 years, and most of its major cities are following suit.

Christianity is no longer the religion of the majority of people in england and wales. This is because the English and the Welsh have left their religion, including many or all of those who are against other religions. One in five in habitants of the republic is born outside of Ireland, a higher figure than in the UK. However, Ireland remains a cohesive state with a population that is integrated well. The English people are no not a minority in their own country, that is a ridiculous statement.
'Only if Ireland would leave the EU, would vote to re-unite.'
No. The values of the EU, which recognised differences and unity through diversity is what is required in any united Ireland. It makes ZERO sense to leave. Economically it would be suicidal.
'Here in the North we are still safe from the migration invasion that has hit England, as they continue to still want to go there.'
Well, you know, Northern Ireland has a reputation.
'If we joined the South we would continue to take what the EU sends to Dublin.'
Prosperity? I should think so.
'We're still Irish or British here in the north In 30 years we could be more Irish and British than Ireland and Britain, safer too Ironically.'
Rubbish. There is nothing anywhere that says to be Irish that you have to be white, heterosexual, or Christian. You don't get to define what is Irish and what is not.
I've never read so much nonsense in my life.
Free Ireland!!!
It's not as easy as just saying yes. A lot of factors come into play. What do the people in the North want? We could be leaving ourselves open to a massive change in the sense of changing of the anthem, new flag, etc. Do people want that?
As long as the Anthem doesn't end up being "Ireland's Call", it will probably be an instrumental anthem like in Spain and with the "Woke" agenda in Ireland at the moment I think the flag is already a rainbow 🏳🌈....
@@roryoneill9444 That is true Rory. I see more rainbow flags hanging from poles than the tri colour.
@@stpatrick614 you talk like an Englishman

It's already been said....It's going to be a New Ireland.
Not a United Ireland...... a NEW IRELAND.

0:59 I didn't understand the "Ireland should be one country" therefore, keep it separated argument. I'm not from UK/Ireland so can someone explain if there's an implied argument I've missed?
Same platitude non-argument I was hearing used in the Scottish indy referendum tbh, on both sides. He's not a deep thinker as much as he thinks he is.
I think I can explain, although he didn't fully explain it himself. Ireland (Republic of Ireland) is a nation state. It is united by a shared identity. If all of Ireland is united into a single country it will be a country of 2 nationalities.
In Britain (Northern Ireland aside) we have 3 nationalities but we have been united for 300 years and we have a monarchy, we had a British empire etc. There is lots that unites us. It was a long time ago that we were fighting amongst ourselves. In Northern Ireland their fighting was a lot more recent.
Yes Yes Yes and Yes. It's time for Irish Unity. 🍀
