This presidential election has shown that the Republic is not ready for a unification poll.
A TRUE republican would vote for HH as it signals to the north that the south would respect all traditions in a unified Ireland.
The sectarian circus around the Irish Presidential election says it all.
Heather Humphreys has spent years pacifying a mob, bending over backwards to prove her “Irishness,” stripping away every trace of her own background to fit in. Yet it’s still not enough. Her family’s Orange connections and Protestant heritage remain unforgivable in the eyes of the self-styled republicans.
It shows the ugly truth. In modern Republic of Ireland, a Protestant can only belong if they leave their identity at the door. The prejudice runs deep. And if this is how they treat one of their own, imagine the reality of a so-called “United Ireland.”
