The irish peace process moves forward today as in his elected official capacity as deputy first minister the former IRA member Martin McGuinness shakes hands with the present head of state of Northern Ireland and the rest of thh UK. Both are committed to peace and reconciliation, and further improvements and demilitarisation of teh countryside in Northern Ireland.

Also One day if Sinn Fein were to get an outright majority under teh stormont constitution, they could seek reunificatuion with the Irish republic. If that is the case then as part of that Ireland could be a republic in the commonwealth (head of which is teh Uk / English monarch and head of teh Anglican church in Ireland). As such the world moves on and peace continues through compromise.
