I have my opinions, think Northern Ireland. I would, though, like to hear Farmer Miles's take.

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds.

I suspect Brexit is fueling thoughts of Irish reunification.

By Paul Cunningham
Political Correspondent

The Cabinet has approved a list of limited St Patrick's Day visits for ministers to key European and North American cities.

This year Taoiseach Leo Varadkar plus eight ministers will represent Ireland abroad for the national holiday.

Mr Varadkar will lead the mission with the annual bilateral meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House.

Some people are like the 'slinky'. Not really good for much,
but they bring a smile to your face as they fall down stairs.

Yes, the scale was surprising. Did you have a question about it?

Your answer above did it.  Personally, I think it will be hard for the Orange to give up what they took in the northern six counties but a united Ireland is a distinct possibility now.
