So says Seamus Heaney

Published on Monday 28 January 2013 20:35

SEAMUS Heaney has said he believes there will never be a united Ireland and has questioned the restrictions placed on the Union Flag at Belfast City Hall.The Nobel-prize winning poet said Sinn Fein “could have taken it easy” in addressing issues over emblems.In an interview with The Times, he expressed his fears that the unrest among the loyalist and unionist communities could escalate with the forthcoming  marching season.“It’s very dangerous indeed,” he said. “Somebody made this remark, and it made me alert to a new possibility - they said, if this goes on until the marching season, everything is, in a sense, lost.”

He added: “There’s never going to be a united Ireland, you know. So why don’t you let them fly the flag?”
