Moving the goal posts, EU decentralisation& becoming part of the world

The protests in 1960s & onwards against apartheid between catholics & protestants with most prejudice against catholic nationalist communities was a just campaign, this can be continued though without having to fight for nationalism, it was sad to see some parts of the IRA dissolve into fueds & some seemingly proto fascist like those connected to CIRA.
Lets have more decentralisation & closer ties with europe autonomously, rather than just linking up with the government in Dublin who can be just as undemocratic as London.
Iam not saying it has to centralised around brussels at all, the EU premiership at least changes & they work via a grand coalition rather than childish party politics.
As with everything in this system the EU & most businesses including cooperatives serve capitalism far too much,but a independent N. Ireland, & independent other regional assemblies for other parts of Ireland+ regions of UK would be a great thing to aim for under a really democractic UN planetary parliament using delegation & consenus.

The conflict in Ireland was very grim, lets not go back, in the midlands, I remember the bomb threats & rumours about poisoning the water supply, the electric fences around reservoirs remain. Wether these threats came from republicans or protestant strategy of tension campaigns Iam not bothered, lets just not go back.

Lets Move the Posts for more regional democracy within Europe, against capitalist theiving , some things have changed
