Bloody Sunday: Boris Johnson showed contempt for Irish people, Julieann Campbell says

Northern Ireland marks 100 years today, divided - Newspaper

BELFAST: Northern Ireland marks its 100th year on Monday, but faltering efforts to commemorate the centenary encapsulate the rift at the heart of the British province. Ever since Ireland was freed from British rule in 1921, Northern Ireland’s existence has been controversial, and the knot in an often bloody tug-of-war between warring factions. The province’s troubled past, fragile present and uncertain future are endlessly disputed between pro-UK unionists and republicans who favour union with Ireland. But the zero-sum contest is heating up again, in part due to Brexit. “The centenary of Northern Ireland is, by its very nature, divisive, and it can’t be anything but divisive,” said Jonathan Evershed, a researcher at University College Cork.
