        @BingoFoxy @BBCBreaking Not really, that's bad foresight not outright hatred. Though I don't agree with that either.

        @Tom_Ormsby @BBCBreaking I don't think the bad foresight was a mistake, but nevermind. The cuts are 10%, so not like cutting ties completely

        @BingoFoxy @BBCBreaking I didn't imply it was, but seeing as how little attention is paid to N. Ireland in general, it may as well be.
