SF challenge to Unionists on united Ireland referendum

In a couple of poorly written sentences referring to some theoretical idea about Sinn Féin and our policies which bears no relation to reality but are instead a below average attempt to get a row ging for no good reason you have convinced me that I should leave Sinn Féin.

You're absolutely right, a united Ireland with crap services run by FF/FG/Labour/PD is largely pointless. Maybe we should turn SF into a party that wants a United Ireland with crap services run by Bertie Ahern just so that you can post something to Indymedia that has a shred of truth or credible political analysis in it. Alternatively you could educate yourself but it's so much easier to make stuff up.

Justin says "Maybe we should turn SF into a party that wants a United Ireland with crap services run by Bertie Ahern..."

I would have thought that's exactly what Gerry and Co. are actively trying to do, especially since you've abandoned the idea of a just struggle against the invader who has held our land in thrall for 800 years.

Stormont Never! - now you've your MLAs and your (temporarily suspended) Ministers.

Salaries from the Queen! - Never - well only a few dozen.

Offices in Westminster - Never! (well just for Gerry, Martin, Michelle and Pat)

Policing Committees - Never! (well maybe sometime soon)

Support FF in government - Never! (well only when Bertie gives us the call).

Vote for Bin Charges in Dublin - Oh no we didn't, we just missed the vote, and that was nearly two years ago anyway!

YE'VE SOLD OUT THE REPUBLIC...

It's somewhat difficult to take seriously some-one who uses the phrase 'invader who has held our land in thrall for 800 years' without a shred of irony.

hmmmm, Justin.. you cant take some who talks about "800 years of oppression" seriously... now now, i thought this was the shinners offical line. well it seems to be from every drunken republican i meet on my travels.
That was the justifcation for the 'armed struggle', no?

Considering that Sinn Feinn ignored the majority of people in the six counties who voted democratically to remain within the UK why should the unionists concede to "their" majority?
Does Dublin really want to pick up the bill for policing and security forces in the north?
