Actually, Norn Iron bank notes are printed by Bank of IRELAND in Donegall Square, while their loose change is British. Could be a profound symbolism in that. The Bank of Ireland is that institution which took over the old Grattan's (Protestant) Parliament (for a landed-gentrified people) in College Green in Dublin. Now ya know where the real power lies, when banks put parliaments int oadministration and receivership. Now they just use greedy banksters in cahoots with a political establishment to collapse a country's otherwise buoyant economy, so as to call in the corporate loan sharkes to make it dependent and submissive. Debt entrapment is the new imperialism. Won't be long before Leinster Hse and Stormont Castle (Ulster Hse) will be on the Freddy Macs and Fanny Mays property portfolio. Funny old world. And tragic too.

Ireland North - “Proposed caption for paramilitary police photograph above: "PSNI/RUC/RIC/DMP - Making British 'democracy' (?) work in Ireland!"” I love it! Alternatively, "The fruits of the unwritten constitution."

I don't think the loyalists realize that Britain doesn't even recognize them anymore. On a recent trip to London, It seems that the British would be happy to not have their flag fly in Belfast. I had some pound notes from N.Ireland and was shocked that they won't accept them in London. I said it is YOUR money and they said that they will except it from Scotland but not from N. Ireland so what does that tell you. They would accept a Euro over their own pound note. It seems that the Britist don't think of N. Ireland as part of them.

I remember orange louts taunting nationalist when they(nationalists) were under siege and blasted with rubber bullets. The Irony of it all.

Rubber bullets were in the bad old daze. Plastic bullets more recently. An improved model of dildo for the British Amry's GOCs wife when he's abroad in Ireland!

This is what happens when so called Republican politicians take the side of the RUC and
the OO against Nationalists
who are only attempting to keep
bigoted march`s stumping through their areas during the marching season.

Stephan. I myself am deemed a
Paddy by the british whether
I like it or , Just pointing
out that the loyalists ( no friends of mine) will have to learn to live with the fact as well.

LOL, insult the Irish all you like with the term "paddys". I am sure your loyalist friends don't like being called Irish. Let them move to britian so they won't feel the bite of rubber in their arse...........

Lets the loyalists know that they`re paddies whether they like it or not. Even if the
process of firing this weapon
has changed dramatically. Won`t use them on the so called mainland against citizens of any colour or race. But paddies are differant.
