Well the Queens visit is over and everything seems to have went alright.The 'great and good'attended and even some Loyalists. But what does it mean in terms of the future. Here is one guys thinking.

Worrying words after Dublin speeches

Published on Thursday 26 May 2011 09:40

AS one who has always opposed the Belfast and St Andrews Agreements, I feel vindicated now that ‘the chickens are coming home to roost’.

Few picked up on Bertie Ahern’s statement prior to the referendum: “There is no longer any legal obstacle to a United Ireland.” Meaning, of course, the end of the ‘Northern Ireland Act’ which is really what gullible unionists voted for.

This week we have Gerry Adams welcoming the sympathy expressed in the Queen’s speech . . .? We are informed of an intended visit, as soon as next June, by the Pope. We know he did not come here last year while he visited Britain, because he is prohibited by Vatican state policy which does not recognise British jurisdiction in this part of Ireland. Has Vatican policy changed - no! Or has something happened in relation to our position within the Union?

Finally, and most worrying are the words of the Seamus Mallon, one of the best informed and shrewdest advocates of Irish nationalism. He said of the two speeches delivered at Dublin Castle by the Queen and Irish president: “They have set the template for what may . . . (he paused to correct himself) what will happen in the future.”

Very interesting indeed, a lot has happened behind the scenes. We know nothing about it, even these loyalists who attended the event in Dublin. Will they be in attendence when the Queen visits her next foreign Country?.. I very much doubt it, they probably won't even be around, when she next visits Northern Ireland. All mind games, leading us down the garden path. The fools the fools.

Sinn Fein have been very quiet about it, we wonder what they have been told behind closed doors. We seen the real face of the Irish a few nights ago, when they booed our national anthem at the football. Yet many Unionists are that stupid they believe that everything is fine and dander with the Republic.

RSAUB 'There are none as blind as those who don't want to see' is a very true saying and there are those among the loyalists who don't want to face up to what is happening and has been happening for quite a while.

Why this is I don't know. Maybe they are head-in-the-sand people by nature or have already decided to sell out. A bit of both maybe. Remembering the time of Lord Brookeborough it is especially hard to see where unionists are today. Tattered and in disarray as we move closer to an all-Ireland situation. It was said on the Nolan Show this morning in the discussion on the removal of the Queen's picture (to be replaced with one of the 1916 rising) that unionists in Belfast were in the minority. True, they did say that republicans were also in a minority which I'm not sure how all this was meant. However, I do remember reading about some ira man who said 'the key to winning the north was winning Belfast'

I'm sure Elliott,Laird,McCausland,Allister etc etc are aware of this but yet seem totally incapable of devising a counterplan. The old postcard which showed a broken down City Hall with cows grazing on the lawns and a tricolour flying overhead as part of the fight against Home Rule was a warning to what could happen, seems now to be coming true.

Just saw on Ulster Television tonight that it was two pictures which had been removed. One of the Queen Mother and one of Charles
