@mclaren_linzi@BBCTalkback Irish language is just one of many aspects of Irish identity which is politicised and made unwelcome here. Whether it's language, music, sport, history or anything else - im yet to understand which part of being Irish is acceptable to some within unionism here.
@EmmaCDeSouza I've never felt the need to have my Irishness affirmed by southerners though. My Irishness is affirmed by my culture & heritage which pre-1921 was exactly the same as theirs. Unless they believe that their heritage was British before then of course...π€·ββοΈ #wedontneedtheirpermission
@SmallerFishGAA Don't think it's a bad thing that people innovate different ways of approaching the game. The undeniable success of soccer is that you can deploy different styles and systems but people lose their minds if Gaelic isn't played the one way.
@Andyhb84@donalmacintyre@trishdevlin@indifund Right. So surely you'd support the mystery of it all being solved as quickly as possible to dispell any of those unwarranted preconceptions!?
@Reiblein @AshleaSimonBF @bestofbritish2 Oh No! Not Jan the racist cat lady from Derbyshire - has anyone informed the welcome committee formed in anticipation of her arrival!!?
@PhilipMcGarry4 You're drawing false equivalence here Philip. You would think to listen to you the UVF killed behalf of some oppressed minority of unionists in the South.
@DENISEJOHNSTO10 No supporter of SF Denise, but I think aligning yourself with Mick Clifford's viewpoint here is pretty incredulous. Even in post GFA era, parity of esteem for Irish culture is beyond challenging. It was a hundred times worse in the 80s and 90s.
