A UK exit from the EU in the context of Northern Ireland voting to Remain must prompt a poll on Irish unity, Sinn Fein has demanded.
The republican party claimed the referendum will have “massive ramifications on the nature of the British state”, given Scotland also voted Remain.
However, the Democratic Unionists hailed the vote as set to deliver a bright future for Northern Ireland as part of an unshackled UK.
In Northern Ireland 440,707 (56%) people voted to Remain and 349,442 (44%) voted to Leave.
Of the region’s 18 constituencies, 11 voted Remain and seven voted Leave.
A border poll can only be called by the region’s Secretary of State in circumstances where there is clear evidence of a public opinion swing towards Irish unity.
I’ve always failed utterly to understand resigning in protest. Like if something shitty happens that you’re against and you leave your job as a result isn’t that a win for the person that did the shitty thing? Cause they have one less person working against them???
its odd how conveniently yall forget that Bernie had the largest turnouts for voting and yet lower polling numbers. its called voter fraud and there have been multiple investigations in Hillary’s team that show thousands of bernie votes have been scratched, thrown away, deterred, as well as running millennials most likely to vote for him away from the polls with harassment. like it was not discreet, i was at the caucus for nevada and i had hillary staff screaming in my face and redoing the votes seven times over, frustratingly, each time bernie got the majority. if you think the reason bernie lost the nomination is because “lol stupid young people like to use twitter and not vote” rather than a billionare woman with a track record of cheating and breaking the law, using this wealth to her advantage to swing the votes, then honestly you’re the reason why people don’t go out and vote to begin with. you sit and belittle young people for getting involved in politics, and then you tease them for being pushed out by a system that doesn’t value them.
Thank you👆🏿👆🏿👆🏿👆🏿
Important to note that these are the types of things mainstream media IS NOT telling us. Stay aware, y’all. The media has their own agenda and it never included Bernie.
