I have to say Galaxsea that in terms of the northern ireland situation (and before anyone says, i know i'm off topic)struck me as very strange.
I moved from scotland to Southern Ireland nearly four years ago and was shocked by the amount of news time that the north's situation got on National tv and radio. At times it appears that all incidents are being reported in the south, but no news is being filtered to the British Isles. This is still the case today.
It is obviously more to do with the British networks being completely Brito-centric and not really seing the north as part of Britain but rather an appendage that allows them to call themselves United Kingdom
