I also can't believe that abortion is still illegal in Northern Ireland. It's 2017 for strawberry floats sake, what the hell is going on. Outrageous and scandalous.

Also illegal in ROI. Utterly ridiculous I agree.


Religion is the reason why both countries still have these archaic laws.

At least RoI now has gay marriage. The DUP will never let that through in N Ireland.

I can't say I'm that clued up on things in Ireland but Sinn Fein actually seem far more reasonable despite the recent propoganda we have seen in the press.

I don't know about reasonable, but Sinn Fein at least support gay marriage which put them ahead of the DUP in my eyes.

They also have a scandal hanging over them at the moment which nowhere seems to be reporting on. They are the main reason our Executive has crashed and burned.

Do the majority of citizens in NI/ROI also believe that abortion should be illegal?

From memory our executive was overwhelming for it being legalised, DUP blocked it.

Why do politicians have to be such utter banana splits about things the people want?

No deal?

May left without saying anything to reporters

DUP believed to have left via the back door (they only have a problem with things going in that way)

The Tories realised they aren't as conservative as they thought they were.

Interesting. If the DUP have left with no deal (better than a bad deal amiright?) then I would imagine they have asked for some absolutely horrendous things. May would sell out on virtually anything, they must have demanded the country be renamed “Orangeland” or something.
