Nonsense. The dualling of the A8 was a colossal project that was funded despite there being very little need for it economically. But it great that they have done it.

It's amazing that not only the NI Executiive, but also the LONDON GOVERNMENT believe LDY worthy of help and investment. Perhaps some of you lot should petition for a revision of partition. That'd shift the bill to a different jurisdiction.
The LONDON GOVERNMENT will happily help pay for LDY as a vanity project to stop the republicans from getting upset and causing any break in the 'peace process' I think it is you living in an alternate universe if you don't understand the motives that run this part of the world.

That different jurisdiction you mention has no more interest in footing the losses for Derry than do the LONDON GOVERNMENT. That is why support for a border poll is miniscule in said jurisdiction.

Your juvenile sniping with DC is evidence that you are mired in the great game of NI in just wanting handouts for your interests rather than coming up with positive overall solutions that may require some sacrifice.
