Sinn Fein president accuses DUP of ‘betraying public’ over Brexit

-

Wilma Kilpatrick: Since when was the mouthpiece elected to have a say in the north? Sort the south out. You will have plenty to do.

Paul Macky: Leader of largest party in the north. Get used to it. Roll on census 2021.

Allister Moore: Being the leader of the largest party in Northern Ireland is not exactly something to be proud of. Both main parties have been wholly dishonest and manipulati­ve by securing their own positions through a politics of fear, while ultimately demonising any credible alternativ­es as sell-outs.

Dean Keaton: Wilma, at least you recognise that you live in the north.

John Bolton: The Irish will be next. The Irish are getting ripped off by the EU. The whole Irish government is ripping its own people off. Gabhan Padraig Bradley: You don’t follow current affairs much, do you John?

Aoife O’Neill Cousins: Thank God the English don’t do that.

Alan Hollywood: Sinn Fein and the EU: oh, the irony. Fighting all these years for a united Ireland and happy to be governed by Europe.

Andy Ward: Exactly.

Robert Willett: Beats being

governed by England.

Jean Owens Nelson: Why can’t they say Northern Ireland?

Kevin Carton: It’s the level of pettiness that’s rampant in Northern Ireland politics.

Seosamh O Murchu: Jean Owens Nelson, if that’s all you can say, then why can’t the British get out of Ireland?

Jean Owens Nelson: Seosamh O Murchu, grow up. I’m British and my family have been here for generation­s. Get a DNA test and see how much of you is Viking, Norman, Gaul, or Celtic. You’ll find very little “Irish” genetic material.

Johnny G Story: Seosamh O Murchu, there is no place called Ireland anymore. Your 26 Counties are in a European country. Ireland was sold out many years ago. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
