I Blame English Public Schools
Prince William has told some Ukrainians living in London how sad he is about what is happening in their country.But he could not leave it at that.“Prince William says conflict is ‘very alien’ to Europe, unlike Asia & Africa,”he told them. His late mother visited Bosnia which last time I checked was in Europe. As is Kosovo which also had to endure a brutal military conflict.Considering someone in the royal family asked questions about the skin colour of Archie the son of his brother Harry.We must wonder if William is fit to be king of a Multi-cultural UK.

Bye Bye Powersharing
Well done to the DUP for proving yet again the North is a failed statelet. Bringing down the power sharing setup shows that Unionists learn nothing from their mistakes. In fact Jeffrey Donaldson said that he would still vote leave if the EU referendum was called again. These people don’t deserve to wield any political power whatsoever. Joint Authority over the North by the British and Irish Governments is the only way forward until a referendum can be held and won to bring about the peaceful reunification of the Country. There is no point in having another Election in the North. It’s a waste of time and money.

Sammy’s Secret Files
Parts of a confidential NIO personality note on Sammy Wilson the DUP MP have not been made available to the public along with other files, and instead will now be kept secret for decades.
The withheld information followed a section of a personality profile of Mr Wilson which had referred to the now DUP MP “engaging in naked romps with a female friend”.

It’s Time To Talk About The Future
We need to talk about a border poll. Under the Good Friday Agreement a border poll can be called at anytime.If the result of the most recent Census shows a Catholic Majority for the first time in the history of the North it will spur talk of the constitutional future of the Six Counties.Elections to Stormont in May might result in a Sinn Fein majority and the party nominating a First Minister. That is of course if the DUP don't bring the whole Agreement crashing down before hand over the Northern Ireland Protocol. 2022 is going to be a interesting year ahead.
