| Catalonia is not Spain. So OK then Ulster is not Ireland! Republicans support Catalonia in its bid to be separate. They would probably support Scotland too in its effort to break up the UK. Yet when it come to Ulster and its right to be separate from Ireland its not acceptable by republicans. Shows up their crazy twisted thinking on these matters. If its good enough for Catalonia its good enough for Ulster
ULSTER IS NOT IRELAND!

The Way We Were with Darryl Armitage
MP throws down the gaunlet to business leaders of Ulster 1960
Mrs Patrica McLaughlin the Member of Parliament at Westminster for West Belfast, threw down the gaunlet in March 1960 to Ulster businesses to increase '' output, enterprise and development. Mrs McLaughlin had been addressing the Incorporated Sales Managers' Association in the Grand Central Hotel in Belfast.
Her challenge to those attending was for '' a united Ulster sales drive to make 20th century 'British Ulster' the foremost part of the United Kingdom in output, enterprise and development. Ulster, she said, needed a cordinated five, ten, fifteen year plan and a survey on all fronts to find out what was required, and how to encourage Ulster people to invest in Ulster success.
Mrs McLaughlin suggested a new trademark under which everything made here could be sold and which would: ''Make our place in the United Kingdom plain - ' Made in British Ulster'.'' She added that will get away from the word 'Irish', which tends to muddle those who do not understand the divisions in Ireland. It is essential for trading purposes that our British connection should be understood and the Ulster name accepted.''
The government must find some new way to make it attractive to Ulstermen to reinvest here and to 'take a chance' on Ulster. Concluding her speech, Mrs McLaughlin said: '' There is a saying in Ulster, 'United we stand'. I wish we could put it into practice more.

| Mrs McLaughlin even over 50 years ago was bang on the money, just a pity that more wasn't done back then to make our Ulster name official.

| Yeah, that's what was needed. Our founding fathers knew the score about the name. Ulster and Eire would give a different slant on things. de Valera changed the name of his country from the Irish Free State to the gaelic Eire but then realised his mistake and changed it again to the Republic of Ireland.
Another UUP woman McNabb also spoke in similar terms to Mrs McLaughlin. Both were women of vision.

| Goes to show how the world has changed and how independence was encouraged by the powers that be.On the eve of the First World War the number of independent countries in the world was fifty-nine. But since the advent of decolonization there have been sustained increases in that number. In 1946 there were seventy-four independent countries; in 1950, eighty-nine. By 1995 the number was 192, with the two biggest increases coming in the 1960s ( mainly Africa, where twenty-five new states were formed between 1960 and 1964) and the 1990s ( mainly Eastern Europe, as the Soviet Empire disintegrated ). And many of the new states are tiny. No fewer than fifty-eight of today's states have populations less than 2.5 million; thirty-five have less than 500,000 inhabitants.
