The local election results in the North of Ireland have given rise to more commentary that another step has been taken towards a referendum on Irish unity and a united Ireland. The success of Sinn Fein in becoming the largest party at local government level in council seats and votes has provoked this reaction, as have its previous victories. The two have almost come to seem synonymous.
The local elections – another step to a united Ireland?
Personally I would be most pleased to see Ireland escape the British monarchy.
Divided we fall... that is one part of the well-used formula.
If we unite, we win.
