Submission statement:
More than a dozen MEPs have written to the President of the European Parliament requesting observer status for representatives from Northern Ireland, to prepare for a united Ireland. Unionist politicians have spoken out against the request. This move follows a recent statement by the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland that a referendum as per the Good Friday Agreement is ‚way off in the distance‘.
If Russia did this for the Donbass regions, people would correctly identify it as the irredentist nationalism that it is.
The nationalist claims of Irish politicians on their neighbor’s territory *should* be scorned by politicians across Europe, but because Irish nationalism is coded as „progressive,“ it gets a free pass from left-leaning media and bureaucratic elites.
I’m not opposed to a referendum presay but it seems a bit premature no?
