Ah the IRA had some good days too, to be fair.

Warrenpoint was an outstanding piece of work

Get an education about your own country. You need it.

So did the Brits. Loughgall and Gibraltar come to mind. Sean South was no loss either.

Ah not at all, nowhere near. Warrenpoint was the pinnacle. Blew 18 Paras up into the air from across the water. Unreal.

You’d have to take your hat off to them.

And it was all for nowt. Northern Ireland is still British and none of us will see a situation where it is any different.

so you’re a Ukranian nationalist against Russian Imperialism, but Imperialism in the country you reside in is grand, because you fucking aren’t Irish, my friend.

now we’re getting in to it. I’m in tears here

The Irish rowers singing that after winning European bronze would be an interesting test case. Clear unapologetic glorification of the IRA but only the good Fianna fail type IRA. Would it cause outrage?

One of the alltime great TFK sessions

Northern Ireland is democratically part of the UK. This is recognised by the Good Friday Agreement. It’s recognised by the entirety of the international community. It’s recognised by our Government, and by the utterly overwhelming majority of the Irish people.

Northern Ireland is recognised as part of the UK by the political wing of the PIRA. That’s what all those gullible sods who joined up and died ended up dying for.

Ukraine is recognised by the entirety of the international community except fascist Russia as an independent, sovereign state.

Bigoted opinions like yours are why a united Ireland will never happen in our lifetimes and most likely for a long time beyond that. The likes of you have no intention of sharing this island with anybody who has a different view to yourself. The views of a fanatic.

Absolutely it would. Everything does

But not for long!

Go to bed sid, we’re having fun

As a matter of musical history, the Up the Ra riff had its genesis in the Gap Bands 1979 hit Oops Upside your head, video above. This song when played at discos (or weddings) was very popular and involved patrons sitting on the ground as if in a Roman slave boat making rowing motions. A bastardised version eventually surfaced in Dublin which went “Do you want a boot wrapped round your head, a boot wrapped round your head”. Ultimately this morphed into the even less eloquent “Ooh aah Up the Ra, Ooh ah up the Ra” beloved of Northern Republicans and Celtic fans.

The Gap Band have a lot to answer for.
