Worth looking at the vote break down to answer that question. Sinn fein won but with only 30% of the vote. The unionist vote is split over 3 parties and in total slightly higher. It's hard to see how you can unite Ireland with such little overall support.
In reality northern Irish democracy is just a religious head count dependent on birth rate and migration than actual policies.

You serious? I don't know the real figures, but difficult to believe that the majority of North Ireland's population will agree. I think that both main tendencies are far to stubborn and somehow terribly childish in their convictions. The key is to listen to each other and accept people may have different opinions and interests. Only people of good will on both sides can help. Whatever ultimately happens politically, I pray the result to be respect and peace for everyone.
Maybe, but while the UK would probably let them go, they'd make it VERY unpleasant. Here's hoping for peace and brotherhood, no matter how it all shakes out.

Sweet! I miss the 80's when the IRA was blowing shit up every day.
A more likely solution would be to cede Catholic-dominated counties to Ireland and have a smaller Northern Ireland.
I would be more concerned about Irish independence.
Yes for sure. If Northern Ireland becomes part of the republic of Ireland 😊
Ireland can't afford North. but don't think there is an Ireland person that wouldn't want 32 back in the right hands
I doubt it. Great Britain would not allow for this. It's not in their interest.

one day in the future. I don't know if I want it yet though.
Hopefully with no more bloodshed.
