On that point, I live in a town called Drogheda and we have the Drogheda United soccer team, which contacted me about the following matter. It wants to have a game of football with a team from the loyalist community in the North on the site of the Battle of the Boyne. That would be a day out for everybody with social mixing, including for young children. There is a lot of goodwill everywhere for that. It is not political and it does not compromise anybody's political views or independence.
