Northern Ireland records highest ever population in latest census

Curitiba, the last joint survey of by Queens University and The University of Ulster recorded that only 16% of those who took part wanted to be part of a United Ireland and 73% expressed a preference of Northern ireland to remain part of the UK. This research is usually carried out annually and these were the results in 2010. The funding came in late for the research for 2011 but they will be working on a report in 2012. I would imagine that with more immigrants and the state of the Irish economy these figures could change.

Since the Dáil recognizes Six-County people as Irish citizens, the total population of Irish citizens in now approachinh 6½ million souls. What percentage of this total is actually Irish and what amount are foreign stock?

Not uninterestingly, demographics are being drip-fed by neo-provincial 6 county government - Northern Ireland Executive (NIE). Results may well indicate that an exponentially growing northerised 'minority', (part of the Island's overall majority), are declaring themselves Irish/Northern Irish (at least primarily) - rather than British (secondarily). Meaning that the future of Northern Ireland/Ulster is likely to be in a departitioned Ireland (DPI) - quite probably back in the Commonwealth of Nations to safeguard British subjectivity of others. The Central Statistics Office (CSO) of the 26 county proto-republic state reports the following stats: "All nationalities - 4,525,281. All Irish 3,927,143. Irish 3,871,238. Non-Irish - 544,357 (20%). EU 27 (excluding Irish) - 386,764 (Poles - 122,000. Lithuanians/Romanians unquantified). Asian - 65,579. Irish-American - 14,699. UK (1) - 112,259. Irish-English - 13,543. American (US) - 11,015. Mauritians - 3,000. 10,000 more Polish than Britons, leading to a marked degree of cultural Pol[ar]isation. In excess of 50,000 6 county citizen/subjects living/working in 26 counties.

Yes, yes, but they didn't answer the really big question did they? The one that EVERYONE wants to know about NI. Who cares if the average age is 37 or 22% of people live in households of 5 or more. Just tell us the percentage that we all want to know! The one that determines whether they stay in the Union or not!
