Watch Out! – Dodgy Survey Suggests “Most Northern Ireland Catholics want to remain in UK”
Elizabethan Fun - Opinion Poll shows there are 12 million republicans in Great Britain
This Irish News headline caught my eye on the way to work this morning – “Most Catholics Want to Stay in the UK : Poll”.
A table on page 7 suggests a huge swing against a United Ireland among Catholics between the years 1998 and 2010 –

Very badly is the blunt answer. Read the rest of this entry »

Prodiban
Protestant Christian Fundamentalists of the North of Ireland’s Bible belt. Often claim that the world is only 6000 years old. This belief is founded on the work of James Ussher.

That blog also features hard-to-believe-but-true stories about Ian Parsley – a party-hopping Alliance/Conservative/UCUNF/Unionist candidate who unsuccessfully sought the votes of dyslexic Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) faithful, unaware that Ian Paisley (Senior)’s name is no longer on Euro-Parliament ballot papers.
Ian (not Paisley) Parsley of North Down
