    Short history lesson from Wikipedia for those confused:
    ] The medieval conquest and subsequent annexation of Wales by the Kingdom of England, followed by the unionbetween England and Scotland in 1707 to form the Kingdom of Great Britain, and the union in 1801 of Great Britain with the Kingdom of Ireland created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Five-sixths of Ireland seceded from the UK in 1922, leaving the present formulation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

    Neither the DUP or SF want to de-segregate NI schools because it suits both extremes to re-enforce the “them versus mentality” to maintain support at the sectarian head count that NI elections usually are.
    That’s why, despite what they will say in public, the recent surge in support for the alliance party will worry both SF and the DUP.

    Sometimes these memorials are used as a way to provoke hatred, remembering the group of men as the British army who were responsible for the killings of Bloody Sunday, Ballymurphy as well as the Dublin and Monaghan killings. What if this memorial was to those who died in the IRA? Facts get washed away to create a false history, history is used to create culture and actions based on beliefs not facts.

    It’s because we read history and geography , we know that the six counties,/the province/“ulster” , is NOT part of the UK.
    And any soldier who unfortunately lost their life there are part of a colonial oppressive army of occupation.
    So no irish person needs a history lesson from a myopic ignorant English man
