Wow, 53%! That's almost Remain levels.

Perhaps they'll change their minds as the Brexit deal continues to unravel.

Read the rest of the article.
Only 39% support a United Ireland.
17% of Catholics would vote to remain in the UK.

Or as more and more of the older generation die off, and the DUP become more widely viewed as the Old Testament with 2-weekly bin collections.

I'd be interested to know if there is a generational shift in opinions. There might be, or there might not. On balance Id be more surprised by the latter.

Are you stupid? What don’t you understand? It never stopped so how the **** can it start? Why hasn’t the **** who cobbled together that piece of journalistic scaremongering no-news item mentioned that ALL operators have always been applying those conditions?

O2 brings back 'ridiculous' EU roaming charges and customers are furious

It was hoped that, after Brexit, EU roaming charges wouldn't return with all the major networks saying lsat year that they had no plans to bring back these fees for consumers.

Would this be the same Daily Express that was rabidly pro-leave, or a different one?

The last N. I. census in 2011 showed that only 29 % gave their national identity as Irish against 46% British.

That was pre-Brexit.

Soon NI will be majority Catholic and be significantly more dislocated from the rest of the UK. Both are likely to help drive the case for unification. I'd expect us to be approaching a will they, won't they state, with a formal referendum, like that of Scotland within the decade.

Not all Catholics are nationalist.
As Catholics disproportionately benefit from the welfare state any attempt to realign the present system in the North with that in the South would cause a substantial loss of income in the Nationalist dominated areas of west Ulster, this would be due to the high numbers of employed by the goverment in those areas.

It isn't the welfare state that is the main concern, it's the NHS. And it's the main concern for all religions.

Yeah well good luck to them - I’d be very surprised if that went ahead.

In the telecomms world, where one goes, they all will. 3 have announced they're halving their data cap in Europe so ultimately they'll all end up charging.

Well I've had mobiles from the early eighties when there was a £50 connection charge, £25 monthly charge with no inclusive minutes and it was 50p per minute or part minute. I used to sell, install and connect mobile phones. It’s only ever got cheaper. Currently I’m on unlimited calls, unlimited texts and 12Gb data for less than £6 a month.
