Pistol_Pete posted:It's frozen full-stop: the region is an economic basket case compared to the Irish Republic. NI was the richest and most industrialised part of Ireland at the time of partition but these days, NI exports approx. £10 bn of goods and services a year, while the Republic exports something like £220 bn. They're so far ahead it's ridiculous. Yeah, why exactly did this happen? I'm only familiar with the start and end points of this development. Did Ireland (republic of) become much more attractive for industry at some point? Did people in the UK forget that NI exists and therefore stopped investing in it? (The political class of right now seems to have no idea that Ireland or Northern Ireland are things that actually exist, but on the other hand, the current political class are the sorriest bunch of idiot wankers since the invention of idiot wankers, so I'm not sure if it counts.) What went wrong for the economy of NI?

In reality it's mostly nettles and dandelions, think I'd probably need to dig it up a bit first to get wildflowers to take (I already have a couple boxes of seeds) I've a cayenne indoors that's doing pretty well though!

ROI has been seeing a lot of foreign investment, particularly from the US. In the UK, most of that kind of thing gets swallowed up by London or simply goes elsewhere (the ROI) because we seem to be hell-bent on driving our economy off a cliff.

textiles appears to have been the preserve of NI Catholics, now that I look it up, but shipbuilding was indeed a Protestant political football, subject to considerable violence to deter Catholic competition the point that neither persisted as mass employers remains salient, however

Roasts are loving A but a bad roast is the absolute worst Some lass from my school keeps instagramming photos of genuinely disgusting roasts with grey gravy as if they're Michelin star worthy and it makes me feel extremely uneasy.

All class. https://www.derrynow.com/news/republican-group-saoradh-say-republican-volunteer-defending-people-murder-journalist-derry/275585 Republican group Saoradh has released a statement claiming that a 'Republican Volunteer' was attempting to 'defend people' from the 'PSNI/RUC' when a young female journalist was murdered in Derry last night. Lyra McKee (29) died after being struck by a bullet fired by a gunman towards police in the Fanad Drive area of Creggan estate around 11pm in the midst of rioting following police raids in Mulroy Gardens. The PSNI have launched a murder investigation and say they are treating the incident as a "terrorist incident." Saoradh have consistently denied being the political wing of the armed republican group the 'New IRA.'
