It's been over 800 years and they still haven't left. Isn't it time the British Government withdrew its troops and gave Ireland back to the Irish?? Paul McCartney thought so. At one stage, there were more British troops in Ireland than in Iraq.

They should get out. They have as much right being there as the Israelis have being in Palestine or the US in Iraq. The Brits are in Ireland as the result of conquest.The displaced the original Irish natives and installed Brits. Then the took a vote by the English living in the conquered land and said that the Irish wanted them there.

Historically, they actually wanted to get out but were asked by Northern Ireland to stay. The wounds between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland run deep and will take time and negotiations to come up with a lasting solution.

I do, and I'm sorry but I'm ignorant of the subject, but I chose to respond without knowledge of this actually happening, so don't be harsh on me, enough is enough, let it go England stop the power over people and live in peace and harmony as the song goes. Rest assured I'll read up on this.

of course they should leave, as the zionists should leave Palestine, as the yanks should leave Iraq, as all occupiers should leave the occupied. occupation is terrible and makes people do things that can be downright nasty.
