    Actually, the agreement was NI was part the UK's soverign terrority until a point a majority both of the people of Northern Ireland and of the Republic of Ireland wished otherwise. Should that happen, then the British and Irish governments are under "a binding obligation" to implement that choice.

    So technically your wrong on your first point.

    It stopped the killing, for the most part... they would never have let us have it anyway.(Would you rather the BA continued to kill innocent civilians?)

    Kinda comical when you look at the current situation.

    Actually I'm correct. For the first time, the Govt. of the Republic recognised that the 6 Counties were territory of the UK - we amended the Constitution to legally accept it. We gave up our claim to it being part of the Republic and accepted that it is British soil.
    Ireland is a 32 County Island and the Rep. is 26 Counties.

    Why is this news? They've had shamrocks on British pound coins since 2014. I don't remember much of a fuss then.
