It is the eternal problem that an Irishman remembers too much Irish history and an Englishman remembers none of it, this seeming advantage to not be tied down by history is a problem in Ireland where history is how your defined.

It is English incomprehension of Ireland that leads to both sides blaming the other for both the problems of the past and of today.

The North continues to move to a normal society by small steps lets rejoice at this.
