@Mrslife
I think you have time to nip out to the 'offie' to get some in for this evenings drinking and tunes.
Not sure it is the EU causing the decline of Morris dancing, The Germans certainly have their version as do the Spanish.
I think the Polish ........no I am not going there.

@Mrslife - I hope they beat the Maypole viciously with their jangly stiicks!

In a LIGHT HEARTED and NORMAL way, obviously...

Cardinal There is nothing light hearted about Morris dancing. Those who practice this noble craft suffer for their art and take it EXTREMELY SERIOUSLY.

"this country ". Do you mean England then? Or parts of England.
And if you look at the detail of the Good Friday Agreement you will see how UK/Ireland membership of the EU was crucial.

@10degreestostarboard not really history for me. Sadly plenty of experience of IRA bombing campaigns on the mainland given where I live.
Stirring that shit up isn't jolly.

Let’s face facts - Scotland has half a foot out of the door and Northern Ireland will follow the money, as they have done since the end of the ‘troubles’

Sorry if that bursts your bubbles

Bellinsurge

Completely agree - the eu shouldn’t be stirring up Northern Ireland

The EU isn't. The vote to leave is. Ever wonder why they voted Remain as the majority vote in NI?

Bellinsurge

Because the eu will buy them off, like they were bought off via the good Friday agreement

They will follow the money

@10degreestostarboard - really don't get it, do you?
Oh well.

I think for the good of all, particularly on this thread, that 10degrees should spend a few minutes on the Northern Ireland thread in AIBU, it was on the second page when I checked a moment ago.
Maybe you, 10degrees should read the comments from those whole lived that life, and who lost family members, regardless whether anything was right or wrong. Maybe engage with those posting there.
The EU do not want those days to return but has been said, the UK has to resolve it as their Sovereign responsibility.

Quitlings ready to quit again on NI and Scotland. Hey, let's throw in the towel on Gibraltar to! And Cornwall has wanted to be it's own country for ages so let's quit Cornwall as well. That naughty London voted remain lets quit on the capital and it can be it's own island amongst England.

I will now plagiarise the term Quitlings. It's ace.
It'll cheer my dh up no end.

Blimey is this still rumbling on with you terriers? If your life has diminished to the level where you are getting your kicks from hoarding food and squabbling on the losing side of an argument online which, honestly, you can do nothing about, I think you need to get out more and move on. You are wasting your breath and your typing fingers. No one cares what you think, you're not changing anyone's mind, you're not in a position to call a do over on the vote, it's over. Just get on with your lives. Or actually do something productive, rather than just bicker with strangers.

You're worried, that's ok. Most people arn't and that's OK too. Seriously. Time will tell and that's the end of it. Jeez

Hi @Thecrabbypatty - room for everyone here. Not sure I'll be buying you a drink, though.
Cheers.

Nigel was great today

Bellinsurge means that she/he won’t need to buy you a drink... because like a good prepper she/ he has plenty on hand! That’s the thing about prepping - some ridicule it as ridiculous and tin foil hattery, but it ain’t!

Oh wait, that’s wrong

@Infinite.
Did he have plans made for him?

Thanks @InfiniteSheldon - but unless he's crawled back under a rock, I'm not looking.

Farage should be knighted - who’s with me?

@10degreestostarboard - whatever make you happy.

I know what makes you happy sunshine

A nicely stocked larder! :)

@1tisILeClerc

I don't think @10degreestostarboard gives a shit about NI or the people who died in the troubles. Not sure really if they care about anything. But, at least they're honest about it, it seems to me most Leave voters were completely ignorant about NI and those who weren't didn't give a shit anyway.
