One of my neighbours used to be a volunteer within the UDA/UFF. We slag each other off every day. Well several times a week. I also talk openly on a forum to former provisionals and former loyalists on a daily basis. Be under no illusion they know exactly where I am from and where my family live.
If I believe I can trust you, I will have no hesitation in introduce you to people from both sides of the divide. BTW you wont have to goto Belfast. I can introduce you to people in Galway Town.
Snowny I don't need MsUKCityofCulture to fight any battles for me. I thought I made that point clear several times. What I did say and I'll say it again is you called people living in the BogSide in Derry British and anyone living there is British. I simply asked you..Is Witty British and would you call her British..?
Silly links?? Re-post one link concerning the o6c link I have put up that is silly Snowy. Just one. I've to listen you posters say things like "I live in a bedsit, have no money.." Basically insult me. I can easily put you in contact with a female member of this site who helped me move in to where I'm living. Trust me it aint no bedsit..
When I lost my milk teeth Wade, The PUNT was LEGAL tender in the o6c. I still remember the old 5p with the bull on the front. Basically you are talking out your butt...The tooth fairy left me IRISH MONEY............
Sky, I am not letting anyone call me anything other than Irish. Thats what I am. Snowy is a West Brit.. With a British view on Irish history. Easily proved.
I can't see anyone 'fighting my fight' snowy. What I asked you several times is to stand over you words and back up your convictions. You have said anyone who was born or other in the o6c is British. I then asked you to go to other parts of the o6c and call them British.
You said something like the people in the Bogside are British. I simply said.. Tell Witty she is British.
If you are afraid to, say it. Again I have no problems in letting her know you think Derry people are British. And again, I don't need witty or anyone to 'fight any fight' for me.
You simply don't have the balls to stand up for your convictions.
Are you going to tell Witty in your opinion she is British?
When I have time snowy I might just take you up in that offer
Now you are going to have one hellva job in getting me to accept I'm anything other than Irish. The British couldn't, the PUL community couldn't. You'll have no chance. The country I was born in again is a called IRELAND. I have never denied I grew up in a gerrymandered state or educated in one. Doesn't make me British. My family have lived on the island of Ireland for 100's of years..All proud Irish men & women. As I have pointed out in a previous post, I have directly quoted unionists claiming they are Irish. Again, I know lots of Dublin heads, a few Cork heads and a few from other parts of the emerald ilse living here in B'ham. Are they British?
Again the o6c is a STATE not a COUNTRY. And if the cap fits Snowy....
Again, tell witty she is British. I have no qualms in letting her know you think she is British...
Snowy, trust me I have never needed anyone to fight my fights. The point I am making is simply do you have the balls to call witty British? What would you think if she knew you called her British. I don't think she would be amused. In fact she'd be offended.
I have 100% conviction in my belief that I am Irish. I have never had a confidence problem either. I am not attacking you. I am simply calling you a West Brit. That's what you are. As I said, reposting your quotes from previous threads isn't very difficult. And I'll keep it all in context and not change one dot..
If you want me to re-quote you from previous threads, just let me know..I'll do it.
They sold out for a few pieces of silver snowy. Fact.
Again Snow, the o6c isn't a country but a gerrymandered state. There is a big difference....
Snowy, your problem is you can't accept I am Irish. That is simply your problem. Not mine. BTW...Are you going to call Witty British? She was born in the o6c..Lives in Derry etc..?
I know I am living in Britain at the moment. So do people from Dublin, Cork and all over the 32counties. Again Snowy I was born in Ireland and I am proud to be Irish.
Your rants and crap jibes only re-enforce my claim about you being a West Brit. You also have no grasp of Irish history. What you do have is a British view on Irish history.
I was born on the island of Ireland. I am Irish. Now you can try as hard as you like to convince yourself what you like..the fact is you have a serious problem in accepting I am Irish. I don't, never have. I also know you don't have the balls to walk into the Bogside and deny Derry people their Irishness, East Tyrone, most of Belfast, North Antrim, South Down , Fermanagh.. Because you are chicken. You are full of hot air.
As for your reference to Pete the Punt..and not being confused. A simple look as his latest outburst about resigning this week then not resigning, shows how confused he is. He wanted a full Judicial inquiry into the OTR's or he'd go. He didn't get what he asked for (not even close) but dressed it up as if he got what he wanted. Trust me Pete the Punt is very confused about lots of things...
I was born in the North Eastern part of Ireland in a city called Belfast. If you really want geography and history lesson again..I'm at a lose end..
We may even note the comment of Ian Paisley at his first talks with Bertie Ahern in Dublin in April 2007: “I am proud to be an Ulsterman but I am also proud of my Irish roots.” On May 30, 2008, on UTV, Dr Paisley referred to himself as an “Irish unionist”.
In addition, many unionists continued to regard themselves as Irish, alongside other aspects of their identity. In 1929, in a debate in the Northern Ireland parliament, a unionist MP stated: “We are Irishmen ... I always hold that Ulstermen are Irishmen and the best of Irishmen — much the best'.
The speaker was none other than the unionist leader, Lord Craigavon. In 1936, he would repeat this point: “While we are Ulstermen, we are also Irishmen'. When Craigavon died in 1940, John M Andrews, his successor, paid tribute to him as a “great Ulsterman, a great Irishman and a great Imperialist”.
In many areas and for many unionists an Irish identity survived. For example, the churches, various sporting organisations and some academic bodies maintained their all-Ireland character, and many unionists were happy to be involved in this Irish dimension.
I have the link to back up m facts. I can also post a video of David Ervine (a one time UVF leader)..admitting his Irishness. You have problems accepting mine. I have no qualms in accepting you are a West Brit...
I was born in the North of Ireland. I never have nor will ever recognize the state you allude to.
My passport says I was born in Ireland, stamped in Dublin and I picked it up in the Irish Embassy in Paris.
Even hardened Loyalists accept I am Irish. The only reason you wont open a thread and explain why I am not Irish and you aren't a West Brit is simple. Everyone accepts (outside of a few) I'm Irish and you can't disprove you aren't a West Brit. I can easily prove both my points (about my Irishness and you being a West Brit).. All I have to do is simply re-read a few threads and re quote you.
I was born in the North of Ireland Snowy. People in born in Cork where born in the South of Ireland. People born in Dublin, Waterford etc the East of Ireland..Galway, Sligo, Mayo etc where born in the West of Ireland..
Now open a thread and explain why I am not Irish in your opinion and how you aren't a West Brit.
And now as I lie here, my body all holes I think of those traitors who bargained in souls And I wish that my rifle had given the same To those Quislings who sold out the patriot game.
Now you know why the are called the Quislings. They bargained in souls and sold out the patriot game for 30pcs of silver.
