We need one football team for Ireland which should be headquartered in Belfast, as it was before the split. Then we can move beyond this divisiveness and look forward to Ireland qualifying and competing for the knock out stages at football tournaments @IrelandsFuture @irishborderpoll

RT by @bjacollins: 🚨 THE HIDDEN COST OF BREXIT This is totally staggering. Starmer’s UK-US medicines deal commits Britain to raising the net price the NHS pays for new medicines by 25% and, according to this analysis, spending around £14 BILLION more annually on new medicines by 2036. In return, Britain gets zero US tariffs on pharmaceutical exports — for three years. Why could America exert this pressure? Brexit. Inside the EU, trade negotiations are conducted collectively while individual countries determine medicines prices. Washington cannot simply threaten one member state’s exports to force its health service to pay American drug companies more. Britain left that protection and faced Trump’s tariff threats alone. This is what “taking back control” looks like when 68 million people negotiate against 340 million instead of negotiating alongside 450 million Europeans. Sovereignty without leverage isn’t power, it’s economic suicide.

RT by @bjacollins: Writing for @chambrepa this week, I argue that now is the time for our politicians to make the tough decisions, & stand on our own two feet. Revenue-raising is no longer a discomforting last resort, it is a necessity that the survival of our public services will teeter on.

RT by @bjacollins: 5000 years ago - The Irish are building the largest reverential structures in Europe, if not the world. They are masters of stone and sky, world leading in astronomical knowledge and architectural engineering. 4000 years ago - The Irish are producing world class metallurgy. 75% of all the gold lunulae found in Europe are from Ireland. 1500 years ago - Irish law is world leading. Advancements include some of Europe’s earliest humanitarian laws like ‘The Law of the Innocents’, 697AD, protecting women and children in time of war. A complex system of Brehon Laws include Animal welfare laws, property rights & even divorce. 1200 years ago - Gaelic Ireland is Europe’s intellectual and artistic powerhouse. It is producing the world’s most beautiful manuscripts and metalwork, its monks and scholars bringing sophisticated theology, philosophy, astronomy, computus and geography to Europe. Hold your head high Gael Small island - immense legacy

RT by @bjacollins: "While it is wrong to identify Mr Martin, rather than a majority of voters in the north, as the chief impediment to Irish unity, there is no doubt that the current leader of the self-styled ‘republican party’ is increasingly isolated in his belief that a passive, ‘softly softly’ approach to constitutional change is best."
