A reminder of the long term demographic trends on identity in Northern Ireland. There is no surge in Irishness among the young, itโs stable at around a third and going nowhere. From 2021 Census.
What a lot of people don't realise about the younger cohorts and national identity in N Ireland: the trend is very flat, at virtual parity between the two main national identities, in mid-30s%. There is no coming Irish majority. Future like now is two minority blocks at parity.

Is this a hate crime?
Another act of wanton vandalism, I have reported this hate crime to the police and the council. Gaeilge gach la!

I agree @RafHM: the โdecolonisingโ left have no interest in history as a factual constraint on what they claim. For them, history is merely a source of anti-Western ammunition.
Great response to my @triggerpod debate with Kehinde Andrews My key point is that these discussions about slavery and reparations arenโt about slavery at all For the left, it is a weapon to attack Britain & America and is rooted in a deep hatred for the West For those in power

Itโs interesting how touchy they are about this! The new Ireland mask well and truly slipped over how Heather Humphreys was treated by some in the Irish media. We can see it! Despite what they say, unionists will have no place in an all Ireland.
"You can't even tolerate someone whose husband might have worn a colour that wants to be president of your country. My goodness! I mean, you people should be ashamed of yourself!" @timcairns on Heather Humphreys, the Orange Order, and the Irish Presidential election @dmcbfs

The UK deserves a BBC that stretches itself to provide impartial news coverage, not one which permits high profile correspondents to audition for far left podcasting roles as a career move.

Nuclear uses 1,000 times less land than wind or solar. On a small, beautiful island like ours, that matters. If Labour were serious about nuclear theyโd back our amendments to scrap the environmental regulations that simply add costs and do more harm than good to nature.
