I'm proud to be British because I am British. I was born British and I will die British. I am also proud to be Irish. I was born in Belfast, and have lived there all my life.Originally Posted by citybone
I respect your desire to see a "united Ireland". I would point out that there cannot be a "united Ireland" unless all the people of Ireland are united.
Attempts to eradicate and demonise "Britishness" on the island will not unite people.
"Britishness" is here to stay. Time to wake up to that stark reality.
Also, I care not what religion, if any, a person is. Protestants and Catholics are merely two very similar strands of the same religion.
