My grandad was also a b special. These were the people who loved their country and it's people enough to put their lives on the line instead of the scum who wanted to tear it all down
You seem to have a bit of a lob sided view of how things happened ... The B-Specials are partly responsible for the conflict kicking off ... Maybe if they didn't let loyalist extremist shoot and burn people out of their homes the conflict wouldn't of happened
Your grandad was a terrorist Alan read a bloody history book. Bunch on planters forming a gerrymandered state. Making it illegal for catholic’s to even vote Loyal to “the crown” and Britain would hand yous back tomorrow given the chance. The tides have turned and unity is coming. Tiocfaidh ar la
a wrong is not is not like wine it dosent get better with age it was wrong then it is wrong today it will be wrong tomorrow and it will be always be wrong
Right give up the 'Catholics have better jobs' arguement becasue there is no evidence to support it, and it's just not true. Moving on.. Why do you think that people in the Republic of Ireland have the right to decide how people in the UK live? Where does it stop? People in America have a say aswell, do they??
On your other point.. I made two silly mistake when spelling as I wrote the comment very fast. But I haven't critised you for your, often terrible spelling, only your grammor, as it can prevent me understanding what you mean.
@@celticlofts Total fallacy ! 150,000 people attended the Northern Ireland Centenary.....for every person who attended, a conservative estimate of 6 or 7 couldn't, for a multitude of reasons..health, distance, work, family etc......that equates to hundreds of thousands if not over a million. To put that into perspective......as the end of the parade was leaving Stormont on the 3 or 4 miles walk to the finish point in Belfast city centre.....the Ballymena district at the front of the parade had not only reached the finish point, but returned home to Ballymena. A clear visual display of the Northern Ireland electorate. You're only kidding yourself.
what did you say about spelling i havent seen any comment about it i take it you havent heard of the celtic tiger it was the fastest growing economy in europe and the irish workers are the fourth richest workers in the world the republic have no right to decide their future of the uk but the people of ireland have the right to decide the future of all ireland which we did in the last all ireland election read my comments see ya
How much of the money goes from the international companies into the Irish people's pockets or the government? Not much and the price is slowly being taken over by the scum of Europe shitty deal for our desendants just wait and see
Well the character of any society is judged by how it treats its minority. If that is so then the Unionist Majority in Northern Ireland have a lot to be answerable for. The unionists had the jobs, the houses, the police and the vote. The Catholics had nothing.
Rubbish, it was the usual back street types who laid around workshy and lazy who whined about inequality. Most 'Catholics' were able to get on and progress, but were infected over time by fenianism...
What Southern persecution of the protestant community are you referring to? Can you give me one single instance? Show me a Protestant in the South who by the nature of their religion has, or ever was, denied a vote, job, home or equal treatment, and Ill show you a liar. Your accusations are simply false and Ive called you on it.
That was a statistic about the 11+, not employment.. And btw, I highly doubt that it's true, not to mention that the people of the Shankill Road do not fairly represent the Protestant people of Northern Ireland. Now N.Ireland was not stolen, it is owned by Britian. So far Britian has given away around 2/3 of Ireland for free.. but the people of the other 1/3 want to keep the connection with Britian as it provides a better living standard. Who are you to question that?
And you havent responded to my previous question about why the people of the R.O.I have any right to decide the future of people of the U.K. Finding it hard to keep up??
@@seanmckillen9090 Born in the 40th. Protestant. Dont tell me Protestants had it good. My mother had 6 children one dead all I remember we had very little both sides had it bad working class people. To hear some people talk you would think Protestants lived the good life. Both sides had it bad. Unfortunately no birth control. Mostly Catholic people couldnt use birth control.that didnt help the poor. Dont blame it all on the Protestants.
come on stop fooling about you must be able to spell better its BRITISH. also i didnt say NI was a thing of the past i said NI under BRITISH rule will be a thing of the past.after this credit crunch the republic will be quite able and willing to welcome back the fourth province better known as the fourth green field
see your spelling hasnt improved i assume you mean because use your vowels and not your bowels and then ill understand you better when are you going to understand that you live in the north of ireland under british rule which is rapidly becomming a thing of the past work with us because some day you will work for us or maybe not p.s
Your grammar hasnt improved either, but I'm not critising that because I have got a serious point to make and I don't feel the need to hide behing trival agruements, like you do. N. Ireland is part of the United Kingdom for Christ's sake. And N.I is certainly not a thing of the past, it's more stable now that is has ever been. And even if you get the Brtish to pull out of N.I. The Republic will have nothing to do with the North, as it wouldn't be able to economically support it.

UFF UVF RUC had other ideas
At least you acknowledge the ruc as a paramilitary organisation!
right or wrong- i think this guy is telling it it how it was..
so true i keep here them saying ulster says no when ulster actually has a nationalist majority !!!!!!!!
Yeah but the Unionists don't see that, or want to see that. The likes of the DUP's days are numbers and it'll be all of their own making.
