Isn't it odd that everyone takes as gospel that we should let a small bunch of terrorists dictate our foreign policy?

Catholic extremists could block the lifting of the abortion ban in Ireland in this way. Blow up a van and "sorry ladies, go back to the Middle Ages, we can't annoy the radicals".

This is how Donald Tusk kept squashing every attempt at liberalising the abortion law in Poland.
What a vivid imagination!

OMG, Sammy Wilson. Do you  understand what you are posting? Sad.

FYI, Sammy is on record that we wanted the 'ethnics' and Polish out of Ulster. Sums up DUP pretty well.

Sammy is also not averse to making racial and other slurs about Leo Varadker.

But if you want to quote him, feel free.

Isn't time to unify Ireland with Northern Ireland (e.g complete the decolonisation of Ireland)?

We discussed it recently. One option would be for Eire to rejoin the UK, which would once again become the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
