Confident unionism there for you Chris! Ruth is the epitome of unionist intransigence!

Given that the security forces attacked the civil rights organisations, and who took an active role in the ’69 pogroms, they pronounced themselves to be legitimate targets for republicans.
Going by the logic of our resident Orange Lodge and ex Service Man’s Club, because the PUL community shielded and colluded with the security forces, all deaths from within the PUL community was justified and justifiable!
How does it go again… They were playing big boy’s games by shielding the Security Forces!

Someone with a username ‘Reader’ using wikipedia is somewhat ironic!

Give the Fenians a bridge and that’ll shut them up. Have you ever taken the train from Derry to Belfast? Parts of the line it goes 20mph. You’re another troll; the reason why I’ve stopped commenting on Slugger. Too many big men hiding behind keyboards!

Aren’t we lucky that you’re just an internet troll, and not someone who actually makes decisions that affect the good people of Derry and Donegal!
Have a look at Letterkenny’s growing and admired technology and pharmaceutical sectors! Letterkenny is a success story in Ireland’s economic gloom times!
You do need to take those bigot glasses off as they are clouding your vision!

Derry’s main problem is a lack of infrastructure which has its origins in the Orange State. The City Of Culture has highlighted this problem and it’s not half way there yet. We have a good economic outlook, but Westminster’s failure to deal with the city’s legacy issues continue to provide ample young men for the generational problem of unemployable and uninterested youths. While the men on the dole played a mother’s role and all that. Derry’s problems are most certainly not exclusively internal, but we do have that to a small degree. We have no University, bar a few buildings which are part of the University of Ulster. We have terrible road and rail infrastructure leading to the city. Ironically the only good roads we have we’re either part funded by Dublin, or as in the case of Derry to Leterkenny, wholly funded by Dublin.
All the nonsense above from the regular apologists of oppression is nothing new to us Derry folk. We will prevail and we shall overcome!

That’s the best I’ve heard yet Harry. The good people in the Londonderry Corporation built houses in Creggan so the poor taigs could be near the city centre. It had nothing to do with corralling them into a single ward, where no matter how many lived there, it would return the same outcome for the gerrymandered Council. I do wonder sometimes.
The last Mayor of Londonderry City Council, and the first Mayor of Derry City Council could not get a home for his young family before Creggan was built because he married a Fenian and had Fenian babies. He shared a two up two down with two other families. That inspired him into politics, and turned his view on British values on its back.
Ireland’s troubles have always revolved around the disenfranchisement of Catholics by the Anglo-Irish elite. Our generation’s troubles started when Fenians had enough of the Orange State, and its Protestant Parliament for Protestant people. Enough was enough. Unionism still can’t share power on certain councils, and won’t do until they are forced to. Unionism only ever changes its age old attitude when the are forced to change. That is the reality of unionism in Ireland, be it this century, the last century, or the century before that.
