There’s something about Church of Ireland people that I tend to like. The late Canon Eric Elliot, for example, whom I knew reasonably well, was as modest and Christian a man as you could encounter. There are exceptions but C of I people generally strike some sort of responsive chord in me.
Urgent Appeal
Despite increasing support for Irish freedom and unity, we need your help to overcome British and unionist intransigence. We can end the denial of our rights in relation to Brexit, the Irish language, a border poll and legacy issues, with your support.
Please support IRN now to help us continue reporting and campaigning for our national rights. Even one pound a month can make a big difference for us.
