The province has nine counties

With regard to Morning View (March 19, see link below), and I quote, “... consisting entirely of a map of the Province ...” I’m afraid the News Letter and unionist grasp of geography is very poor.

The province has always had nine countries, three of them had too many Catholic citizens to be allowed into a Protestant Ulster.

What a sad place we live in, and still unionists expect nationalist to celebrate and commemorate its centenary. Never, never, never.
