Will Ireland become one united country in your lifetime?

Im very confident, in the current climate of Brexit chaos one thing that has took me by surprise is the unionist farming community in the 6 counties who to the bewilderment of the DUP are thinking they will be better off in Europe, now im no fan of Europe, the lesser of 2 evils when talking about Westminster, but the look on the faces of Dodds and Sammy the bigot Wilson's face was priceless.
 
Since brexit record numbers have applied for Irish passports from the UK. If your parents or grand parents were Irish you automatically qualify so I believe. That means I just miss out as my Great grand parents were Irish, but that didnt seem to bother Jack Charlton when he was Irish manager.
 
My Great Grandfather was a Mullingar man..

You may talk and write and boast about your Fenians and your clans,
And how the boys from County Cork beat up the Black and Tan.
And view a little codger who came out without a scar.
His name is Paddy Mulligan, the man from Mullingar.


The Peelers chased him out of Connemara,
For beatin' up the valiant Dan O'Hara.
And when he came to Ballymoney, he stole the Parson's car,
And he sold it to the Bishop in the town of Castlebar.
Seven hundred Peelers couldn't catch him.
The Chieftain paid the army for to catch him.
And when he came to Dublin Town, he stole an armoured car
And sold it to the IRA brigade in Mullingar.


Well the Peelers got their orders to suppress the man on sight.
So they sent for reinforcements through the county left and right.
Three thousand men surrounded him, they hunted near and far.
But he was with the IRA in Johnston's Motor Car.

The Peelers chased him out of Connemara,
For beatin' up the valiant Dan O'Hara.
And when he came to Ballymore, he stole the Parson's car,
And he sold it to the Bishop in the town of Castlegar.
Seven hundred Peelers couldn't match him.
The Chieftain paid the army for to catch him.
And when he came to Dublin Town, he stole an armoured car
And sold it to the IRA brigade in Mullingar.

They came with tanks and armoured cars, they came with all their might.
Them Peelers never counted on old Paddy's dynamite.
On the fourteenth day of April, well he blew them to July.
And the name of Paddy Mulligan took half of Ireland's pride.
