Sharing power in N. Ireland? |
Travel Info they say they are going to share power???? do you believe that Travel Tips This is the second go at it already. The first power-sharing executive led by David Trimble (UUP) and Seamus Mallon (SDLP) collapsed when the UUP withdrew because of a bank raid allegedly by the IRA. Now we have the more radical parties on both sides (Unionist DUP and Nationalist Sinn Fein) together in gouvernment, that has to be a good sign. Two years ago Paisley's crowd did not even talk to Sinn Fein. Yesterday Bertie our leader and old Paisley planted a tree together at the battlefield of the Boyne. Ian Paisley sen. said himself that he would have laughed heartily at anybody who had foretold him this, the rest of us are still kind of dazed by all this sudden amiability. The Sinners accepted their ministerial office in Irish first, and there was not a batted eyelid among the Unionists, and neither did any of Adams's crowd flinch when Paisley kept referring to Martin McGuinness as "my deputy". So it looks good for the moment, and although we have grown accustomed to "one step forward, one (and a half, if possible) back" we can only hope that this time it will last. Others Well that's first step. The England dont want the N Ireland anymore they have other more important things to take care of... They want piece in the region for good. Stone age gone. Now West Europe is united. hard to believe but it seems to be happening. Progress at last!! |
