By creating a provincial parliament for the nine counties of Ulster, within the framework of a new Ireland the partition system would be disestablished and the problem of the border removed. The Protestant people of Ulster would have a working majority and would have immediate access to power. Furthermore, the devolution of power to the local level would ensure for each community the opportunity to foster its own traditions and culture. Each region and community would have within itself the immediate power to deal with its own social and economic problems. Such devolution of power from one central authority to the people is the essence of democracy. The Nationalist population would be of sufficient strength to ensure a strong and credible opposition within reach of power. For the first time in fifty years we would see a normalization of politics with an end to the domination of one community by another and the resultant frustration and conflict. ... read full story / add a comment

On a day when the UN released a report that 70% of women suffer poverty and only own 1% of the world's titled land, which is a common inheritance of all people I decided to look at media coverage of the issues. The Irish Times had the report in small paragraph without title or reference to the committee release. And I could not find it elsewhere.
