#1921Treaty . Based on the selling pitch of Collins 'the freedom to achieve freedom' both the 1921 Treaty and the establishment of two failed states within the island of Ireland,has been proven to be an unmitigated failure,for any considered themselves Irish and Republican.
A really stunning exhibition bringing the best of Sir John Lavery and historic artefacts together in one fascinating #1921Treaty exhibition. Well done to all involved in curating it!
Wicklow folks get along to see this great #1921treaty exhibition at #wicklowlibrary
Voiced one of the secretaries to the London delegation Miss Lily O'Brennan for it 🙌Worth a visit!
Wonder will #DanSnow go into much detail on 1921Treaty negotiations?? #BBC4 documentary #LloydGeorge #MichaelCollins
One hundred years later we are still living with the consequences of the Treaty - with the partition of our country and with a political-economic system that protects and advances the interests of a wealthy, powerful elite - the Irish capitalist class. -17 #TreatyLive #1921Treaty

Tony Connelly Chris Donnelly Simon Coveney Well if Dublin Govn is as steadfast as they were about upholding #HalfMillionLeftBehind in #Orangeland we all have a lot to worry about. 1921Treaty & its protections ignored by Dublin. Conflict resulted 50yrs later. #Dejavu
Dr Steve Aiken OBE A lopsided GFA as my community 'compromised' on a fait accompli brought about with violence/threat & then ur Ulster Unionist Party Steve undid EVERY 1921Treaty protection we- a captured community- had been granted & these were replaced wi repression
No 1 even asked us to agree to Partition!
William Ennis Yes 100%.
No wonder this place failed chronically.
Unionism undid every protection built into the 1921Treaty. Today Unionism has a default that does not allow Generosity to their conquered Hostages - never has Unionism volunteered a generous act.
No magnanimity.

Brian Rowan Ulster Unionist Party had full responsibility & started by removin every 1921Treaty right granted Nats>All gone by 1930!
NICRA asked for 2 back, 1Man1Vote & PR
UUP then lied bout UPV/UVF bomb campaign & set Europe's biggest Pogrom since Nazis onto Catholics
Unlike IRA/UVF
UUP nvr said Sorry
derek alcorn Crash by any side advances fact that 6Cos doesn't work/never did
Evidence points to an odd truth if Ulster Unionist Party had implemented 1921Treaty in full 6Cos wuda worked
UUP did opposit & UK/Dublin nodded!
UK sealed 6Cos fate in 1925 AngloIrishAgreement when Dub got £s to forget Treaty
Erskine Childers My Tyrone granda backe Dev but in end despised 'that oul devil Dev' for doin zero for us.
I would take full 1921Treaty in a hartbeat today
