When Sammy Wilson said that "The people of Northern Ireland didn't want this" he was speaking about the loyalist protestant people of Northern Ireland. He was completely disregarding the nationalist catholic population as did a former loyalist prime minister of Northern Ireland Basil Brook when he told his party conference "I have never employed a catholic, I will never employ a catholic and I urge you to do the same". You will never hear this mentioned in the British media. Why?? Loyalists have had privilege and power in Northern Ireland since it's inception. Loyalists will do their utmost to hold on to their privelaged position. They will even start the 'troubles' up again to hold on to it. (As they did the last time). The British media are complicit in this. You will notice that there were no interviews with the other 50%of the population who were promised in an International agreement (The Good Friday Agreement) that there would never again be a border on the Island of Ireland. Which 'will' happen if the loyalists get their way.
Bending the knee to the entitled unionist minority was always repugnant to democracy. It's time this was corrected, and a United Ireland established. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
@M R Unionists never cared for democracy hence Northern Ireland exists. Plus European unity isn't a bad thing. The commission is only as Authoritarian as they are because they have to deal with people stuck in the past. Believe me, I use to support Ireland leaving the EU. You either have a choice between an independent small nation that is absolutely dominated by the US and China, or be part of something much bigger than can stand up to them. It's a shame Britain chose the former over the latter, but at least the mistake of partition will be corrected.
Do you really think that the Irish healthcare system won’t change when a third of the nation’s population will see it as a basic right, on top of all the people advocating for such a system in Dublin right now?
Shame on Channel 4 for reporting on this from the misleading standpoint that it is somehow a battle between Northern Ireland and the EU. It is not. It is an internal battle between Northern Ireland unionists and the UK government. Concluding the report with the pronouncement that "The EU says the protocol is here to stay" is very provocative, as it suggests the EU has imposed the NI Protocol on the UK and is now saying NI unionists had better get used to it. The EU never even proposed the NI Protocol as an option. It was Johnson's government that came up with it after it decided not to accept Theresa May's option which was to avoid an internal border by keeping the UK within the EU's single market. If the EU has one major flaw at the moment it is that it does not counter these misrepresentations of its role - made by the UK government but increasingly by the UK media - in a clear and concise manner, and state the truth behind all these false accusations. The mainstream UK media - including the Guardian and BBC - seem to be progressively going rogue by twisting the facts in these reports to suit an increasingly nationalist UK bias and a protectionist outlook. Their refusal to report the EU's steps to control its vaccine exports as a reaction to the UK's hoarding of 100 million vaccines before allowing any to leave the country, was just another example of this misleading reporting of events. When a country's mainstream media starts joining the gutter press in its misleading dissemination of news you just know the country is past the point of no return.

@@patrickdoyle9304 I was not negiotating the Withdrawal Agreement. I wouls have said the best of both worlds would be to stay within the Customs Union. With the hardline Brwexiteers in charge there had to be a border between a third country and the EU. The Tory´s knew this from day one.
Regulatory alignment would have solved everything. But understand something. The UK has obligations under the Good Friday agreement. That takes priority over brexit.
Undemocratic. My dear, naive brit, they use the same damned system as Westminster. Oh wait, no, they use the single transferable vote while Westminster uses the far less democratic first past the post system. And quite frankly, the GFA is a treaty, between Ireland and the UK, Guaranteed by the US and the EU. Your stupid suicide cult has no right to threaten the peace process. If you try, the EU and US will sanction the UK into oblivion. Accept this. The world does not care about you, you have no inherent right to mettle in these matters
Nobody forced Johnson to sign both the withdrawal agreement and the trade deal with the EU against the will of the people. It was the law for him to do so. It's nobody's fault but Johnson's.
@Stalin The GFA is far better for peace than the Anglo Irish Agreement where the measures introduced in the AIA voted through in both the Uk and Irish parliaments did nothing (and in truth were never going) to stop all the bloodshed in Northern Ireland and bombing on both sides of the Irish sea. Nobody thought about a future Brexit when the GFA was signed. And quite rightly so. It is despicable for the brextremists to abolish it just so they/you can get exactly what they/you want. Less than 20% of the electorate who voted, voted for Johnson's internal market bill intended to accommodate s Trump trade deal that would rip up the GFA.

Southern Ireland is in the RoI and has made its bed with the EU.
The DUP deliberately manufactured this: they refused May's deal, which would have ensured no checks between GB & NI, and instead voted for a deal which put checks between GB & NI. Why? So they could wail and moan at how they were being mistreated and push for the border to be put between NI & Ireland. This was planned. It is working perfectly.

Samuel Olaogun Firstly, the name of my country is Ireland (if you are speaking in English) or Éire (if you are speaking in Irish). Ireland has a written constitution, Bunreacht na hÉireann. It can be amended only by the people of Ireland in referendum. The leadership/government of Ireland will not decide on this issue. Secondly, Ireland has already suffered economically from Brexit and has had to make significant investment in mitigating measures, e.g. direct shipping routes to mainland EU. It has absolutely no obligation whatsoever to clear up the British government's mess in Northern Ireland. Thirdly, for Ireland a "united Ireland" will mean major upheaval, enormous cost and a very real risk of violence. Some of us remember the extremism and the violence the last time...and we're not going back. There may be a united Ireland in the future but the conditions must be right. The Irish electorate will not be bullied into voting against their own interests. Finally, if you're going to criticise the Irish government and lecture Ireland about what it should or should not do with its own independent sovereign state, it is entirely reasonable for Marc Vincent to ask what part of the island you are from, Ireland or the UK.
I voted for Brexit. I massively regret that now. I wasn't as wise to the politics of it all. I can see right through the bs now. Brexit was never going to solve the issues people made out it would. I hated the Tories and at that time they were pro EU. I thought well anything they are for can't be good for working people.
I voted Remain and I thoroughly regret my decision... after the EU threatening to block vaccines during a pandemic... I'd rather be a million miles away from that undemocratic European Union.

The United Kingdom decided it wanted a border with the E.U. Also with Ireland that border has to be drawn somewhere. Calling for no protocol is equal to calling for a border between Ireland and N.I. thus destroying the Good Friday agreement.
These aren’t people concerned about a return to violence and warning against it. They’re issuing a threat and Channel 4 have given them a platform to broadcast it.
It's difficult to be a unionist. They struggle and they have struggled. It's difficult to be a unionist when you know you have no historic claim to the land you occupy. You look in the mirror and realise that the land you live on was given to you as a result of force - to sway the numbers to favour the union. The original residents forcibly removed, discriminated against - cast aside. I feel for the struggling unionist as times are now changing. They would do well to embrace it instead of threatening violence in protest of a situation they voted for.
You say wrong things. 1. there has never been occupation. Why not look at ira sinn fein 17out of 35 mla now all have convictions for terrorism. Actual deaths n injured.
The DUP and hard-line unionists are becoming more and more isolated. Europe sees them now as the awkward squad, the Biden administration appears to have little time for them, the 2021 census is likely to show a first time NI majority catholic population and the tories are happy to throw them under a bus at the drop of a hat. It might help the DUP's case if, instead of just highlighting problems, they came up with the odd constructive solution - but for some reason, they just don't seem to have the wherewithal.

He was completely disregarding the nationalist catholic population as did a former loyalist prime minister of Northern Ireland Basil Brook when he told his party conference "I have never employed a catholic, I will never employ a catholic and I urge you to do the same". You will never hear this mentioned in the British media. Why?? Loyalists have had privilege and power in Northern Ireland since it's inception. Loyalists will do their utmost to hold on to their privelaged position. They will even start the 'troubles' up again to hold on to it. (As they did the last time). The British media are complicit in this. You will notice that there were no interviews with the other 50%of the population who were promised in an International agreement (The Good Friday Agreement) that there would never again be a border on the Island of Ireland. Which 'will' happen if the loyalists get their way.
Just goes to show how bigoted these people are racist hypocrites scum bags
He's also disregarding a huge percentage of people from a Protestant background who want to look forwards, not backwards.
No it won't!!
Bending the knee to the entitled unionist minority was always repugnant to democracy. It's time this was corrected, and a United Ireland established. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Believe me, I use to support Ireland leaving the EU. You either have a choice between an independent small nation that is absolutely dominated by the US and China, or be part of something much bigger than can stand up to them. It's a shame Britain chose the former over the latter, but at least the mistake of partition will be corrected.

Shame on Channel 4 for reporting on this from the misleading standpoint that it is somehow a battle between Northern Ireland and the EU. It is not. It is an internal battle between Northern Ireland unionists and the UK government. Concluding the report with the pronouncement that "The EU says the protocol is here to stay" is very provocative, as it suggests the EU has imposed the NI Protocol on the UK and is now saying NI unionists had better get used to it. The EU never even proposed the NI Protocol as an option. It was Johnson's government that came up with it after it decided not to accept Theresa May's option which was to avoid an internal border by keeping the UK within the EU's single market.
If the EU has one major flaw at the moment it is that it does not counter these misrepresentations of its role - made by the UK government but increasingly by the UK media - in a clear and concise manner, and state the truth behind all these false accusations. The mainstream UK media - including the Guardian and BBC - seem to be progressively going rogue by twisting the facts in these reports to suit an increasingly nationalist UK bias and a protectionist outlook. Their refusal to report the EU's steps to control its vaccine exports as a reaction to the UK's hoarding of 100 million vaccines before allowing any to leave the country, was just another example of this misleading reporting of events. When a country's mainstream media starts joining the gutter press in its misleading dissemination of news you just know the country is past the point of no return.

Nobody forced Johnson to sign both the withdrawal agreement and the trade deal with the EU against the will of the people. It was the law for him to do so.
It's nobody's fault but Johnson's.
They are hoping everyone forgets.
@Stalin
The GFA is far better for peace than the Anglo Irish Agreement where the measures introduced in the AIA voted through in both the Uk and Irish parliaments did nothing (and in truth were never going) to stop all the bloodshed in Northern Ireland and bombing on both sides of the Irish sea.
Nobody thought about a future Brexit when the GFA was signed. And quite rightly so. It is despicable for the brextremists to abolish it just so they/you can get exactly what they/you want.
Less than 20% of the electorate who voted, voted for Johnson's internal market bill intended to accommodate s Trump trade deal that would rip up the GFA.

It can be amended only by the people of Ireland in referendum. The leadership/government of Ireland will not decide on this issue.
Secondly, Ireland has already suffered economically from Brexit and has had to make significant investment in mitigating measures, e.g. direct shipping routes to mainland EU. It has absolutely no obligation whatsoever to clear up the British government's mess in Northern Ireland.
Thirdly, for Ireland a "united Ireland" will mean major upheaval, enormous cost and a very real risk of violence. Some of us remember the extremism and the violence the last time...and we're not going back. There may be a united Ireland in the future but the conditions must be right. The Irish electorate will not be bullied into voting against their own interests.
Finally, if you're going to criticise the Irish government and lecture Ireland about what it should or should not do with its own independent sovereign state, it is entirely reasonable for Marc Vincent to ask what part of the island you are from, Ireland or the UK.

These aren’t people concerned about a return to violence and warning against it. They’re issuing a threat and Channel 4 have given them a platform to broadcast it.
It's difficult to be a unionist. They struggle and they have struggled. It's difficult to be a unionist when you know you have no historic claim to the land you occupy. You look in the mirror and realise that the land you live on was given to you as a result of force - to sway the numbers to favour the union. The original residents forcibly removed, discriminated against - cast aside. I feel for the struggling unionist as times are now changing. They would do well to embrace it instead of threatening violence in protest of a situation they voted for.
You say wrong things. 1. there has never been occupation. Why not look at ira sinn fein 17out of 35 mla now all have convictions for terrorism. Actual deaths n injured.

Europe sees them now as the awkward squad, the Biden administration appears to have little time for them, the 2021 census is likely to show a first time NI majority catholic population and the tories are happy to throw them under a bus at the drop of a hat. It might help the DUP's case if, instead of just highlighting problems, they came up with the odd constructive solution - but for some reason, they just don't seem to have the wherewithal.

@@igotvaccinated2816 Maybe Chechnya should have a vote? Has that guy found his cat yet?
Jesus this is embarrasing for the DUP
Ulster Unionists got their Brexit against the will of Northern Ireland. Then insisted on a hard brexit resulting in the current situation. They are the turkeys who voted for Christmas.
I’m from unionist back ground and the only thing that Jim Allister said there that was correct was that unionism is a broad church, so much so that I and many other unionists backed remain, A fact that seems to have been lost in the mix. Jim and Sammy don’t seem to recognise that their issues with the protocol isn’t actually the protocol it’s BREXIT.
I agree, and what is Brexit?in reality its English Nationalism on the rise.
British soil can’t be brought into the north,
I thought that per the unionists/ loyalists that it was already British soil , but it looks that these “ Loyal British subjects “ haven’t been standing on British soil but on Irish soil all along.
This is what you signed up to with BoZo
Sure, the gentleman complaining is correct about the results of Boris' NIP. But the time to complain was back when the whole stupidity of Brexit was promoted. Too late now, they were told by people who knew, but they insisted on listening to the know-nothing Brexit promoters like Boris and Farage. No point in whinging about the spilt milk now is there?
Ulster Protestant planters will have to do what the Hong Kong ones who think they are british have to do! Pack up and move to Britain! End of story! #cheerio
Sammy's answer will always be the same. No, No, No. But ask Sammy for a viable alternative to the protocol and he doesn't answer.
This is the idot who - as our ''Environment Minister'' - described global warming as ''an insidious propaganda campaign''.
Members of his party actually believe the earth is only 6000 years old.
It's Brexit , that's all . And the UK aproved .
Showing Sammy the Boat home 4:36 , 🤣 ......

Why the people in Northern Ireland complain, they should blame Brexit and the Tory government for this, never the EU
Brexit the gift that keeps giving, or is it the gift that we keep having to pay for, it's one of them.
Well it's given me a vaccine... the eu seemed hellbent on blocking northern irelands vaccines... during a pandemic no less...lovely bunch...
@@igotvaccinated2816 Brexit didn't give you the vaccine. The UK could have made its own vaccination arrangements even if it had stayed in the EU. Entry into the EU vaccination program is purely voluntary and any member state is free to do its own thing.
Listening to NI Unionists arguing against a border is very ironic. They created a border in Ireland 100 years ago.
"I'll not answer hypotheticals"
So you don't create plans for what will happen if you don't get your way. This is the attitude of people who have been stomping all over a minority for generations and suddenly find themselves on the other side of the line.
@M R ^^FSB weirdo! #ShitpostQuean
tbh? You're never been honest!
They could always just move to Britain if they love it so much
Be careful of what you wish for
When will the people of NI understand that the rest of the UK do not care about them ? They knew what was going to happen when they voted leave. They just did not give a sh.
Sammy making his excuses already; “its not my plan...”
Unionist parties are no longer a majority in Northern Ireland. The majority of people in Northern Ireland support the Protocol as the least-worst option.
DUP voted for Brexit. Turkeys voting for Christmas.
Hilarious considering the EU threatened to invoke article 16 which indeed would have made us Turkeys without a vaccine... or a Turkey.
@@igotvaccinated2816 Oh no, the EU threatened to do something, then didn't do it. What a brave tale you tell from the spineless world of Unionism. Do you ever stop whingeing and complaining?
Yup.
@M R I smell a Russian here. Say Putin is a big gay panda to prove you are not Russian.
United Ireland.
"Young ones ready to go for it"
"The Good Friday Agreement did nothing for us"
Some people are to young to recall what N.Ireland used to be like. Foreign investment, tourist economy, property boom that created thousands of jobs, companies subsidized by British Gov't for many many years. Now I'm going to ask a serious question "What did the loyalists do for themselves or for the community as a whole from the Good Friday Agreement?"
Come on, I'm all ears Big lads.
Sammy Wilson and Jim Allister have never met a bottle of whiskey they aren't fond off
👍👍👍👍😂🤣😂💕
The DUPs (dupes) are angry about a problem they caused.
Childish to say that
Its remarkable how utterly miserable, negative and bitter people these unionist leaders are, every one of them.
And old, don’t forget “old”
The Englishman has ditched NI. Too expensive. As simple as that
Good riddance!
It's not NI people that are pissed off it's those hard line unionists that don't want a border in the sea, they want a border on the land between NI and Eire but are too cowardly to admit it openly.
I am afraid NI will soon be part of Republic of Ireland, so they have to get mentally prepared for the new life. I am sure they will benefit from that because GB is slowly becoming a poorer country.
Have you seen the Republic mate?
Great Britain became rich by looting other nations... Do you think gb won't pay for this
@@trentlandon9033 just like the e.u. God's are doing to member country's now
Ls Martins if so we will force you to have USA. EU menu.. Shared government with lots of unionists. Your anthem. Flag removed.. Faith schools grooming votes into adulthood terminated. We will have our 12 th. Unlike prior to partation the next 40 thousand murdered will be counted by the world.. A reason we had 6 as refuge as they protestants.. Then civil war further denial of our then Irish citizenship.. You will have massive changes to make
@@jamesthejoker7415republics far richer than UK. We in England last week and most of it looked 3rd world like
Unionists are always angry about something, one country, go away and buy a map this is ireland.
What NI unionists should be worried about:
As the brexit economy takes hold and there is less funding to go around. That many Regions and large cities in England , Scotland and Wales, will ask the question "Why does a area with only 1.5 million people gets around £9 billion a year?"
Didn't the Unionists voted for Brexit and thus for borders...?
... They got a border.
It was Boris who skipped May's Backstop solution and opted for the border in the Irish Sea....
Weren't the Tories and their Brexit ideology supported by the Unionists.
Unionists crying foul over a border through their country is the height of irony.
Yep, European Unionists having a cry because Northern Ireland are getting vaccines while the EU FAIL the Republic... LOL
@@igotvaccinated2816 ^^FSB imposter. #ShitpostQuean
The UK is on a hiding to nothing in this business. On St. Patrick's Day a bipartisan resolution by a Democrat and Republican was presented to the Senate asking that the House pronounce its support for the NI Protocol. Let's see how that goes by the end of March.
Remind us all again where you wanted the border Boris.....the Irish Sea or on the island of Ireland or in the Irish Sea or on the island of Ireland.....
If Northen Ireland are pulled out of the single msrket and the customs union due to Johnson's infernal market intended to override the withdrawal agreement he said he was delighted with (suddenly now it's totally unacceptable) the border has to go on the island of Ireland. It will be all because of Johnson's government not the EU.
And the countdown to the Unified Republic of Ireland starrrrrts....now!
Well done Brexit.
Ha... Dublin says no
@M R The clock is ticking on N.Ireland - Unisom is dying - accept the facts old boy.
@M R Nice try Kid, N.Ireland is angry at Brexit & not the EU. Unionism in N.Ireland is dying out & that is just the truth. N.Ireland has around another 10 to 20 years max left in the UK.
@M R What is your long term plan - move back to live in GB or live under a united Ireland? The game is almost up for you lads. You had a run at an apartheid state. It just didn't work out for you!
@@tycobb8843 My plan is to enjoy being vaccinated while the failing euro currency, failing undemocratic EU crumbles.

4:00 funny fact about the frog in the boiling pot analogy is that, in the research that it stems from, the frog was lobotomized. Frogs don't actually just chill out and wait to be boiled. Take from it what you will.
It’s time for Westminster to bring back to England those who feel they can’t live in a reunited Ireland..
I remember bojo the clown face full of joy after signing the deal
What an amazing one-sided report! Did not expect that channel4 would go that far. And no mention that I this was a was what the dup, conservatives and evetually the UK government proposed to the EU ! No mention the DUP campaigned for brexit in a dangerous short-sighted policy. The “unilaterally extended” action brakes international law .
Oh dear. The logic of Brexit is suddenly hitting them in the face.
Yes, I'm northern Irish and i just got my vaccine... thankfully we left the EU (they just recently threatened to invoke article 16, which would have stopped vaccines reaching me) It actually dawned on me, as a remainer, what a disgustingly malevolent political establishment the EU is... glad we left.
@@igotvaccinated2816 Well, enjoy your new internal border. For your sake, I hope the nutters on both sides in NI don't pick up their guns again. As for article 16, they have admitted their mistake and backed down pretty quick. I look forward to Boris admitting his mistakes. But that would take too long.
"No internal border" first time I've agreed with a DUP supporter.
What is the alternative?
@@eoghan5006 i mean there shouldn't have been an internal border in Ireland. Partitioning ireland was a mistake.
@@bigbadbaz16 ohhh gof you
The UK should stop being silly and rejoin the EU..
Yes. That's the way out.
Nah I'm just a leftwing gammon. The EU threatened to block vaccines by triggering article 16 so I just sit on youtube all day crying like a crybaby bot... don't expect anything intelligent out of me.
