I'm a little bit confused. Sinn Féin becomes Northern Ireland’s biggest Westminster party. Westminster? What happened to Stormont? I thought we had that historic change where Northern Ireland is now governed locally out of Stormont not out of Westminster in England. I'm going to have to research this a we bit.
"Voters turn against DUP which loses North Antrim seat held for over 50 years by Ian Paisley and his late father." Too bad, so sad. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. I agreed with the DUP's position on Brexit, But Ian Paisley Sr. was a dick. No offense. "Ulster says No. Ulster says No. The Pope's the AntiChrist." Ian Paisley Sr was hateful, intolerant and promoted division. People can change but burning the tricolour all those years was offensive. The tricolour is green, orange and white. Green represents Catholic, Orange represents Protestant and white represents Peace between the two. The Irish Proclamation protects civil liberty by law. Ian Paisley Sr used the red hand of Ulster to claim Ulster says no to a united Ireland. Ulster says no to peace.
The conflict was obviously about being a part of England versus being free and independent. I support a free and independent Ireland but I realize in the north that ideal is problematic because half the people want to be part of England. The other half don't. The only thing that has changed really is now there are people who simply don't care. They just want peace.
The DUP lost three seats while Sinn Féin held their 7 so let's not misrepresent this. James Hugh Allister, the one that took Paisley's seat in Antrim, used to be a member of the DUP but founded a new party called the TUV - Traditional Unionist Voice. They still support being part of England so when it comes to a Unification or a Separation vote, it's still 8-7 in favor of England.
The recent sexual assault charges against Jeffrey Donaldson, the former leader of the DUP who recently stepped down to stand trial for rape and sexual offences are obvioulsy a factor in this.
The real problem that I see is the issue of Brexit. Sinn Féin, who I have always supported in the past, want to break off of England but join the EU and I'm like WTF? Why in God's name would you endure generations of hardships and spill all that noble blood to win freedom from England only to bow down and surrender to the EU. What are you thinking? Give your head a shake. Freedom is freedom and slavery is slavery. Don't win your freedom and then throw it away.
Why do I oppose the EU? Don't I want Europe to prosper?Over 60% of Italians now think membership of the EU is a bad thing.

Of course I do. I want Europe to prosper but I don't want to see them become slaves. I don't want to see anyone become slaves especially Ireland or Scotland. America has the US Constitution which protects civil liberty by law. Yet we have seen how that document is under constant attack. The same with Canada and the Charter of Rights.
The EU has no document that protects civil liberty by law. They need one. The Irish Proclamation protects civil liberty by law. That binds the Irish government but it has no jurisdiction over a European government. Joining the EU is a way for the Globalists to throw away the Irish Proclamation. Does the Irish Proclamation prevent the EU government from making laws in Ireland that violate civil liberty? I don't think so. That is something we need to discuss.
Think about it. Right before Brexit, Tony Blair ran to be the president of the EU. Ireland finally wins it's freedom from England only to bow down to Tony Blair in the EU? That would be insane. Tony Blair was behind the unlawful invasion of Iraq based on a lie. We need to think this through.
Joining the EU is one step closer to the Globalist one world government run by Communism.
