No such thing, no. Certainly not my family.
I had the misfortune of looking at FB posts from Irish “low-info voters” who gave SF their vote—and they are of one mind in terms of lusting for more handouts.
There has always been a long-distance connection between the Irish in Belfast, and ‘the States’.
I was not inquiring about YOUR family. Not my job.
I have known of these sort of affiliations, long before the Internet came around. Facebook has always been a joke, as has Twitter.
I had pen-and-ink, (yes juror jeanette, people used to actually write), writings from folks both here in America, and from both sides of the wall in Northern Ireland. The hatred of the local ‘Paddy’, by the bloodlined English goes way back.
