When the majority of the Northern Ireland population no longer want to be part of the UK.

And frankly, most of us Brits would much prefer to see a united Ireland, leaving the Irish to sort out their own problems.

Basically bout half of Northern Ireland are catholics and wanna be seperate from Britain and the other half are protestants who wanna be part of Britain. So really theres no simple answer to it without upsetting one side of the argument. The IRA want to be seperate so throughout the 70's to 90's did a load of terrorist attacks but that has supsided over the past decade so this recent attack is a bit out of the blue. The fact is the protestants in Northern Ireland wanna be part of Britain so it isn't simply a case of England being hellbent on keeping a little bit of Ireland.

the people of northern ireland are brits, as are the welsh and the scottish and the english. wales and scotland have their own national assemblies now, does that make them free of the english ? they'd probably argue not. the northern irish assembly doesn't yet have the same level of control over their own matters that the welsh and scottish do, maybe it will come some day if the unionists and republicans or nationalists could ever cooperate. now, if you mean when will the catholic minority in northern ireland succeed in making northern ireland part of the republic of ireland, i think never.

Technically the main population base in northern ireland is irish and scottish. The english are trying to give the country it's freedom, but no one will go into goverment with sinn fein. Which means northern ireland will be fine once they stop being so damned petty.

You're forgetting that a huge proportion of those who are born and raised in Northern Ireland consider themselves British, like I do, so there's no such thing of ridding NI of the Brits! Both those who call themselves British and those who call themselves Irish can work together and rule NI together - once the politicians get their act together that is.

I dunno, ask the (Scottish Decended) Northern Irish Unionists they are the ones who want to stay part of the UK.

No "Brit" in the UK gives feck about NI or wants it as part of the UK. So sorry to burst your shitty little anti-British bubble there pal. We don't want their religious and sectarian bigotry, intolerance and violence (we have enough of that over here with Muslim terrorists!)

They could have it back tommorrow if it was up to me but I guess the DUP would have something to say about that, as would the UDA and UVF.

Its a difficult procedure, they are trying to find a solution that everyone can live with and that won't kick off bloodshed. Stupid, moronic, ill informed comments like yours don't help.

As you have shown your complete ignorance of the situation. Further comment is pointless. Go and donate some money to the brave boys of the IRA for them to slaughter kiddies with.

when they find some common ground to live in peace and let bygones be bygones.. I'm sure the Brit boys would much prefer to be at home with there loved ones than trying to keep peace for other people.. I wish everyone could learn to get along no matter what race, religion or gender people choose to be

Northern Ireland seems to be the only colony left by the british empire.They relinquished Canada.Australia,India etc.I cannot see why N.I should be any different just because it's closer.I think a date should be set for 2010 and anyone who doesn't like it can be repatriated.The sad thing is even the british do not want the little englanders over in britain.

We don't want you, a bunch of religious bigots. But the Government must remain there otherwise all you little scamps will start a religious civil war and consequently tens of thousands of refugees will pour onto the mainland. When you lot finally grow-up we will leave...and gladly.
