    Far too complicated to answer yes or no to a vague concept.

    would it need a referendum - yes
    do I want one - no

    the reality of it is, there is no way in hell to pull this off without a massive increase in government spending and a tax increase to fund it, it would take decades of legal paperwork to pull off, and as much as its the most irish thing to quest for and want for all time and my heart wants a united Ireland. I would likely be out arm in arm with the DUP campaigning for a no vote, throwing up every hundred meters.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.
