My Life As A Republican

I was. Gave up on when I finally admitted to myself that it was a lost cause (at least in my lifetime).

You're young yet.  I reckon the border poll will be called some time in the 2030's.

12 years older than you, lad. 

And it doesn’t matter when the border poll is called, because the re-unifiers are going to lose, and lose big. With the NI population roughly split between Catholics and Protestants and more than 40% of Catholics preferring to stay in the UK or undecided, the re-unifiers are finished before they start.

I’m confident in predicting that the re-unification of Ireland will be celebrated by massive flocks of swine, soaring majestically through the skies above Belfast.
