@AmandaSamuels4@damiendamien@joehas@AdamPollock Yes he was. He was an Irish unionist. There are 2 types of Irish: Unionist and Gael. Anyone born on the island of Ireland is Irish. It's that simple.
@Wearablez@KellyMatshall It's called the north or northern Ireland down here. Who cares? We get called Mexicans when we go to Newry. We don't cry about. It's only a name. Everyone knows where we are talking about.
@TheTeddyKing@lilyhilbo@BelfastBooks So before partition you lads would happily accept your Irishness. Nobody is taking away you Britishness. All I'm saying is embrace your Irishness. Edward Carson was a proud Irish man whom you lads love. Be like him.
@Ferdiabs@DerSchwarzBaron Yawn, Humphries, Gavin and Connolly were 3 bad choices. Maria Steen is what most ppl wanted. There is 105 active Church of Ireland churches in Dublin alone. Nobody cares what someone's religion is in the south. Just ask Katie Taylor. Everyone loves her. Bono is also COI.
@lilyhilbo@BelfastBooks@IrishFA You are right but Ireland is an island. Someone from Derry or Belfast is as Irish as someone from Dublin or Wexford. Edward Carson was a Dub and unionists love him. He was an Irish unionist just like you and Mr. Books are Irish unionists.
