My real concern in all of this I suppose, is that we do not return to what I experienced as a young soldier in Northern Ireland for 5 tours.............division, death and hatred on a mass scale there and at home on English soil. Tooooo many good friends lost for what?! I don't want to see my son going back there on that basis militarily.
20 years of relative peace has been a good time.

I wouldn't wish that on anyone, I will always remember those early seventies, but see a real urge from this morning, for Sinn Fein and others to start a process of a single Ireland and a Free State from UKicon rule bringing Ireland back as one country.
It goes a lot deeper than that, but hope I am wrong.
In a like minded sense, Gibralter will also find this next period of uncertainty really tough IMHO!!
