I have mixed feeling about this subject, on the one hand I am British and love this country but I also have many Irish family members some of whom died during the famine, they were left to starve. The Irish were treated as slaves in their own country and my great aunt tells me stories of how the British stormed in killing hundreds of people during a football game, they didnt stand a chance.
I dont think ALL the Irish feels a hatred towards the British, but maybe the families who lost loved ones do and thats fair enough.
What I dont understand is...
Why does Britian think it can go storming into another country and claim it as their own?
Is it because our country is so small and we have 'size issues'?
The Queen isnt allowed to get involved in politics, but shes sent as our nations spokesperson?
Poor woman, I bet she'd much rather be back in Buck palace drinking tea in her old age!
And finally how come the Irish werent allowed to fly their own flag during the Queens visit?
STUPID!!! I am probably wrong in my theories, I dont know jack about politics...I think Ill go back to facebook and upload some more photos
