  • The Demographic Timebomb – Are Northern Ireland's Days in the United Kingdom Numbered?

    The Demographic Timebomb – Are Northern Ireland's Days in the United Kingdom Numbered?

    The Demographic Timebomb – Are Northern Ireland’s days in the United Kingdom numbered? by Gregory Hammond Research Paper submitted in fulfilment of a MA Degree at King’s College London March 2006 The Demographic Timebomb – Are Northern Ireland’s days in the United Kingdom numbered? Gregory Hammond Map reproduced directly from: http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/images/maps/ni_towns.gif on 8 Feb 06 ABSTRACT Periodically it has been suggested that Northern Ireland’s days in the United Kingdom are numbered because the Province’s Roman Catholic population has been expanding faster than the Protestant population, pointing to a future Catholic majority and an inevitable vote for Irish unity. This paper reviews the Province’s demographic trends, which in fact reveal that the two populations are on course to move into approximately equal numbers by mid-century with neither side gaining or retaining respectively a clear lead over the other. While ‘tribal’ voting habits would result in electoral stalemate between the Unionist and Nationalist blocs, the present trends overall indicate that there would not be an electoral majority for a united Ireland, although the result of a mid-century referendum would be closer than opinion polls indicate today. Finally, the paper examines Northern Ireland’s constitutional future through a ‘demographic lens’, showing that the logic of the current situation is to proceed with efforts to make devolved power-sharing work within the current borders; there is no case for repartition today, but the idea should not be dismissed for all time and the paper postulates two future scenarios in which repartition could be appropriate.

    COLLEGIANS RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB 1890— 1990 by PIERRE PAUL FRY Published by Collegians Rugby Football Club, Belfast, and printed by Nelson & Knox (N.I.) Ltd. BELFAST: 1989 it FOREWORD One does not proceed very far into the research on Collegians Rugby Football Club without realising the depth and the degree to which Collegians owes its survival and existence to the generosity and benevolence of Charles Seaver Neill. Collegians is synomonous with Charlie Neill. Appropriately, the present pavilion at Deramore Park is a tangible memorial to him. It was my privilege to have known him and to have played rugby at Collegians when he was very much the dominating personality. When you met him you saw either the obvious gentleman with old world charm and courtesy or a man with commanding presence, he was over six feet tall and straight in stature, forbidding, even autocratic, but whichever mood he was in you may be sure that underneath his exterior was a most sympathetic and understanding nature. In conversation when he was invariably extolling the virtues of Collegians, he spoke with a distinct, pulsating and passionate voice. Charlie Neill was the great Collegian. I wish to thank many people and sources from which I have had assistance in the compilation of this work. My first acknowledgement must be made to the Belfast Newsletter, the Belfast Telegraph, the Ireland's Saturday Night, the Northern Whig, the Linenhall Library and the Central Library for permission to use their files for reports and results of matches. My thanks are also due to the Methodist College, Belfast for access to its archives, mainly for the records of the early years.
