This is definitely a positive. Of course there'll always be some that don't take,whether through apathy, anger,illiteracy, cynicism or whatever.
NI is more politically volatile overall, but the relative proportions of Unionist and Nationalist are relatively constant. Nationalism in NI isn't progressing towards 50%+1 because it can't/ won't attract any floating voters.On that result, Scotland is far more divided than Northern Ireland is
Do you have any evidence for this?with poor catholic families (mostly nationalist) tending to be larger than most other christian groups, most of which live in Glasgow
