The Queen has been in the Republic and paid respects in commemoration and even stood for the Irish national anthem. Higgins has been to the UK and met her majesty. There is absolutely no excuse to still carry on with this attitude that British people from Northern Ireland or the rest of the UK or the British Army are the bad guys and should be opposed. When will you ever move on? The Queen can not do any more to heal divisions. These Republican lunatics who have twisted Wolfe Tones view and have an aggressive ideology don't want peace but to make sure the last "Brit" is forced to the sea. No excuse for that attitude now.

These small minded people need to learn that we have moved on as a country. The british were the only ones who gave us a generous loan with no strings attached when the country got itself into its current mess. The way I see the British people these days are they are our cousins sometimes we don't get on with them but they are ok and will help out when needed. We have more in common with the UK than any other country.

Anyhow, back on topic and agenda-pushing aside: repulsive stunt by this crowd. WWI involved endless numbers of young men (some of them only boys) being sent to their deaths by powerful bureaucrats behind mahogany desks. Any man/boy who went out there to the trenches deserves respect for what they sacrificed - their lives, on behalf of others'.
