The 1916 Societies are an emerging political, cultural and historical movement in Ireland founded in 2009 to oppose the further running down of the republican struggle, with the specific remit of securing the legacy of those who gave their lives in the cause of Irish freedom and ensuring the preservation of the republican tradition on that basis. We are an Irish separatist movement who campaign for an all-Ireland referendum to resolve the partition of our country and its constitutional status and believe the Irish republic as declared in the 1916 Proclamation, later ratified in the 1918 General Election only to be usurped and partitioned by military force following a campaign of violence and repression by the occupying British government of the day, should be a sovereign independent state. We are committed to fostering and promoting Irish Unity in the belief that the Irish people have an inherent right to self-determination and that this basic right continues to be forcibly denied. Our strategy is to build support for an inclusive 32-County democratic plebiscite to determine the national aspirations of all the Irish people, free from external political interference and regardless of artificial lines of demarcation drawn by the British government in Ireland at the time of partition. Our movement, though relatively young, is already at an advanced stage and is the fastest growing of its kind in this country at present and has been for a considerable period of time. We are currently engaged in a wide range of work at the political, cultural and educational level and are already beginning to see dividends arise from our efforts. It is clear to us that an appetite for reunification does exist across this island and as the centenary of the 1916 Rising approaches we can only envisage this increasing in the period ahead. Ultimately our hope is that we can help channel the energies and will of the Irish people into and through a democratic process that can see those energies fulfil their potential and see the democratic will of the people realised in full.
What impact do you think a Yes vote would have on politics in NI o6c?
A ‘Yes’ vote for Scotland would likely introduce a fresh dynamic into Irish politics around the issue of partition and the British sovereign claim to the six-counties. That’s certainly what the minimal hope of the 1916 Societies would be. Beyond that we believe a Scottish secession from the Union can set in train a process leading ultimately to a British withdrawal from Ireland and Irish reunification. And no doubt Wales would likely follow suit. We could very well be witnessing the end of a long period in history whereby the London government has exercised its domineering power to effectively subjugate and control those countries adjoining and adjacent to the borders of England, to bring them under the remit of the Crown and prevent them from controlling their own sovereign affairs.
I think it was the quote that sold it for me.. I could easily imagine you on a sun lounger, smoke in one hand and a cold cocktail in the other thinking to yourself "How am I still alive?" And loving every minute..
So go go swimming and scuba dive a little then you go home and give cooking lessons while you are meditating while doing naked yoga and someone paints/sketches you?
I understand it's ethical and no fools need apply. If a good man like myself was walking in Barca and we bumped into each other.. You could sort me out with a connection to a good Rasta..?
Make sure its a silent collections.. No coins only used bank notes..
Keep this in the space between your ears at all times. My kids lives have nothing to do with you.
Snowy is it the fact I smoke weed and drink cold beer piss you off about me or just me.
Snowy again, I call them sheeple (the voters) I call PSF the Quislings, the SDLP the Stoops and you a west Brit. You are one who called people living in the o6c 'Bloody stupid Catholic natives from Belfast'...
This is simple to understand Snowy. My kids have nothing to do with anything. I'd hazard a guess a some people when reading will probably question your 'wanting' to know about my kids.. Simple, their lives are none of you business..
You think dissident Republicans are what snowy? What are we not far apart from?
I tend to call them sheeple snowy. They keep voting the same people in and nothing in real terms has changed. In fact in a lot of cases it's worse. Take a look at the health service in the o6c today.. I don't see any difference between the Stoops or PSF in the o6c.. And the version of PSF being fed to the sheeple in the 26C's isn't the same beast..
I think you'll find it's you who thinks like that (one of the many reasons why I stand over my claim that you are a west Brit)...
Which way do I vote snowy?
A snoby west Brit. Snowy I bet you are in touch with your feminine side too.
Me having a toke or having a beer or three has nothing to do with me being homeless in Paris. I fail to see why you bring it up. if you want to hear some of the funny stories about that time... I'm ok to talk about it.
I understand that being against violence etc doesn't make anyone a west Brit. But the fact remains you are a west Brit.
Is that the politically correct version of " Bloody stupid natives and Belfast Catholics? This is how Republican Alex Kane writing in the Belfast Newsletter thinks PSF are.
It has accepted an internal settlement and the border separating the UK from the rest of Ireland.
It co-governs with the DUP.
It has stood down the IRA and the Army Council.
It has decommissioned the arsenals.
It has accepted a local police force.
It has accepted the criminal justice system….
ther than moving into Buckingham Palace and curling up like an old green corgi at the foot of the Queen’s bed, I’m not sure how much more Sinn Fein could do to indicate that their war has been lost and the surrender terms penned by the British.’

Snowy why do you keep saying "No" ....?
RE: Should Scotland become the worlds newest independent nation state?
If Scotland breaks away, the shares will fall.. The markets in London will go WTF.. It costs London 10 Billion a year to keep the o6c..
