TBH I don't think there are more than a handful of people in England Scotland & Wales who want to think about N Ireland at all - and certainly not about "the Troubles"
it's very important in N Ireland and slightly important in the Republic. Both sides in the north use it as stick to beat the opposition and to whip their own side up. They hate the idea of a compromise as it would remove their biggest weapon in the fight to demonise their neighbours.
