Seeing as how well Ireland is doing these days, would they even want the troublesome province back?

It's very tempting. Seeing as there's serious talk of ditching Gibraltar against overwhelming resistance on the rock itself, that's not so unlikely.

Isn't the conflict though beyond "religion" terms?

N. Irish (protestants) are more "progressive" than Irish (catholics) -take abortion for a very underlining example - so the two societies have serious differances that just reflect on each ones religion.

Hmrph I don't know who to like more. On one hand you have England with Marks& Spencer, Body Shop, the hats and ombrellas, the metropolitan London and all those great rock bands and on the other hand you have those jolly happy stubborn not giving up Irish. It's a tough call. Ireland's conservatism pins me a bit on England's side but I had a nice time with an Irish girl so this almost balances it out, almost.

In any case here's a small cartoon that maybe the Irish would like. It has nothing to do with them per se it's from our own anti-king camp (for constantine)

Technically the Irish Republic has never had control over the north. The best thing that could have happened would have been for the British to stick to their guns in 1916 so the whoole area would have remained United.

Isn't the north considered part of the Irish nation for rugby purposes? I think we can trust the IRB's judgement on this matter as a wise settlement.
