The following is the actual reality of the matter and just a statement of historical fact.
Ireland is one of the oldest countries in the world - much older than the 10th century upstart England. At the Council of Constance (ecumenical council) in1416, it was stated that Ireland ranked as one of the four original constituent States of Europe, taking its place after Rome and Byzantium, and before Spain.
We native Irish are Gaels, and our country is named in our stead. We Irish are a distinct people - our Gaelic political and social order and associated culture originated/evolved in Ireland during prehistoric times, and still dominates to this day - despite all the foreign interference.
England (King of England) illegally invaded and fraudulently occupied Ireland. Ireland was later shanghaied into the UK by a foreign British Parliament in Ireland full of foreign ethnic British Unionists, under the control of England's Colonial Office in Dublin Castle - and we Irish people have been trying to get our country Ireland as a whole out of the UK ever since.
Even the foreign British Prime Minister Gladstone confessed in June 1886 :-
"There is no blacker or fouler transaction in the history of man than the making of the union between Great Britain and Ireland. The carrying of it was nothing in the world but an artful combination of fraud and force, applied in the basest manner to the attainment of an end which all Ireland detested. A more base proceeding, a more vile proceeding, is not recorded, in my judgment, in any page of history."
The artificial partition of Ireland was never sought nor sanctioned by the Irish people. It was, and still is to this day, coerced/forced on us by a foreign people and country against the will of the Irish people. Actual democracy and self-determination is still being denied to Irish people as a whole in our own country by a foreign Country and its Nationals it planted in Ireland, and who were given an artificial veto against democracy in Ireland in order to block reunification, and are the reason why Ireland was artificially partitioned just a few decades ago in the first instance.
The Irish people do not want our country Ireland partitioned, and we do not want the foreign country England/Britain occupying Ireland or any part of - we never did.
That is the actual reality of the matter and just a statement of fact - NOW FOR THE NEWS.

The SDLP leader has called for a ministry to be set up by the Dublin government to plan for Irish unity.
"Let's stop doing nothing. Let's stop being frozen in a stale status quo, in a political hotel California where the past is ever present, and the future never arrives.”
"So our call is simple to the Irish and British governments: now is the moment to begin real planning. Give the New Ireland the focus it deserves with a new ministry in the south."
