Living in Northern Ireland Versus the Rest of the UK

  • No one needs to be reminded that Northern Ireland is a part of the UK. While it may have some things in common with the rest of Ireland, it has wisely chosen to remain a part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain. Even then, it appears to be living under the shadow of the other three kingdoms of England, Scotland, and Wales. But that’s not the real situation.
    As you likely have observed on many lists ranking cities and towns in the UK, those in Northern Ireland don’t often get ranked among the top 10 or 20 bests or worsts. And when they do appear on those lists, they hardly come first or last. The question then is, does this make Northern Ireland cities and towns inferior or superior to those in the rest of the UK? What would you find if you engage in an exercise tagged “living in Northern Ireland versus living in the rest of the UK?” Isn’t that going to be an interesting find? Follow along and let’s check it out.
    The centenary celebration of its founding on 3 May 1921 provides a rare opportunity to take a look at how Northern Ireland is doing in comparison with the rest of the UK. You may be surprised to find that this smallest nation is outdoing the other nations in the United Kingdom on many metrics. Though hard to believe, it’s true. And these are critical areas of the economy, development, and basic social amenities that add value to human life.
    Employment and Wellbeing
    For six consecutive years in the British Isles, Northern Ireland, which is incidentally the smallest, has had the lowest unemployment rate. Thus, while there may be more jobs in England or Scotland, there are more unemployed people in those places. The unemployment rate was at its lowest in late 2009 while tourism was providing a lot of jobs.
    Northern Ireland has the highest levels of well-being in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). In the UK, it’s the only region with less than 10 percent of the people living on a persistent low income, after housing costs. The number of children living in poverty in the last five years has continued to fall much below the UK figures.
    Nevertheless, Northern Ireland is not spared from the challenges being confronted by the rest of the UK. This region was in the news recently for reasons many hoped were long gone. It’s about the riot that broke out in Belfast. Some say the real cause was the unionist discontent with Brexit. Others say the root was the decision to shield the 24 Sinn Féin politicians who allegedly breached Covid-19 rules during the funeral of a former IRA member. Still, there are those who believed that the violence was caused in part by an exasperation borne out of leaving behind the working-class areas of Northern Ireland.
    Whatever the situation was, we think Northern Ireland had lived down that and had moved on.

    💯💯 I've been living in Belfast for nearly 4yrs now and I agree on everything especially about the education part. I honestly think a lot of people are still caught up with the past about that protestant/Catholic conflict but not the majority. You're also definitely right that people influence the younger generation about that. I'd say there are still people that are not "used to" seeing people of different race to say it mildly.

      it's not because they are not used to seeing different races...maybe they dont want to turn into london or paris or sweden and maybe they don't want the problems these places have due to being overrun by migrants..the rotherhamScandals come to mind..If you want multiculturism go to england or dublin.. personally I want NI to remain as it it is... it's a small place and it would be a shame if it got swamped... it's the people that make it a great place start importing third world and it will go down the drain.

    For someone who does not come from, live in, or likely never been to Northern Ireland, you seem to base your facts and figures on some very selective (and therefore) suspect data, When you talk about "some areas" showing relatively similar figures, how are you defining those areas - by population numbers, area size, type of housing, or some other factors? Probably more than any other part of the UK, NI has long-time demographic, political, and religious comparisons that historically have created and divided many communities, so the standard forms of bland data you use means nothing; comparing any two communities is much like comparing two different forests, each forest having different trees, different habitats, different soils, different weather conditions; one could be on high ground with good pasture, the other could be in an industrial wasteland with toxic chemicals underneath ; the only thing they have in common is that they are trees .... but of different kinds and different environments!
    However, this kind of statistical garbage is what we expect from the Learning Canteen.

    6:40 - James Joyce Bridge, Dublin
    6:56 - South Anne Street, Dublin.
    0:23 - "It has wisely chosen to remain par of the United Kingdom of Great Britain" - not if you read Irish Economist David McWilliams's article in the Irish Independent on 29 April 2017, an extract of which reads ...
    "The contrast between the economic performances of the North and south is shocking. If we go back to 1920, 80pc of the industrial output of the entire island of Ireland came from the three counties centred on Belfast. This was where all Irish industry was. It was industrial and innovative; northern entrepreneurs and inventors were at the forefront of industrial innovation. By 1911, Belfast was the biggest city in Ireland, with a population of close to 400,000, which was growing rapidly. It was by far the richest part of the island.
    In contrast, the rest of the Irish economy was agricultural and backward and the only industrial base we had could be termed a 'beer and biscuits' economy, dominated by the likes of Guinness and Jacobs.
    Fast-forward to now and the collapse of the once-dynamic Northern economy versus that of the Republic is shocking. Having been a fraction of the North's at independence, the Republic's industrial output is now 10 times greater than that of Northern Ireland.
    Exports from the Republic are €89bn while from the North, exports are a paltry €6bn. This obviously reflects multinationals, but it also underscores just how far ahead the Republic's industrial base is. Producing 15 times more exports underscores a vast difference in terms of the globalisation of business.
    The Republic's economy is now four times that of the North, even though the labour force is not even two-and-a-half times bigger.
    In terms of income per head, the Republic is now almost twice as rich per person as the North. The average income per head in the Republic is €39,873, while it languishes at €23,700 up North.
    The differing fortunes of North and south can be easily seen in the fact that, having been smaller than Belfast at the time of partition, the population of the greater Dublin area is now almost three times bigger than the greater Belfast metropolitan region".
    As an aside, referring to the "United Kingdom of Great Britain" is an insult to Northern Ireland, given that the proper name if the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland".

    Being in the EU gives a major boost to the NI economy over that of the UK. However, the Irish republic remains very much wealthier than NI which makes one wonder why NI - so heavily dependent on huge subsidies from the UK taxpayer - does not wish to reunite with the South sooner rather than later. The DUP never seem to face up to the fact that the English government and people really do not care a jot about NI and expressly said so in 1998.

      You're just as bad as Learning canteen for making up statistics. The NI economy has been stymied by the EU with its trade regulations - it's been a bind because it has cut off NI from the UK Mainland trade-wise...whoever heard of putting trade restrictions between two parts of a single nation? The ROI is actually wealthier than the UK because of the subsidies given it for years by the UK, and now by the EU. Much of the UK wealth still goes on foreign aid as well as support to its Commonwealth countries, while the ROI supports no-one else!
      The "English" Government as you put it is actually the British Government acting on behalf of all four united countries; but you're right, inasmuch as it has never really expressed any desire to hold on to NI. For all their failings, the DUP remain loyal to the British Crown - not the British Government!
      The Learning canteen is nothing but a jokes department with someone who does nothing but take statistics and garbage on diferent towns and cities that they've never been in and know nothing about them, but are more than happy to publish pure rubbish just to get a reaction.

      Really..? I was born and raised in Belfast and lived in Galway for eleven years, where I attended university, so I think I do know what I'm talking about. State benefits in the Republic of Ireland are far higher, by a considerable metric than they are in the North. The healthcare system is better, with fa better outcomes, despite all the bluster about the NHS, which has virtually collapsed. The education system is far superior. The private sector is fully developed and diversified, with a far greater range of well paid jobs, unlike the North, which is over reliant on an increasingly shaky public sector.. and although it may be more expensive to live there, it doesn't cost three times more than the north and the standard of living and quality of life are far higher to boot. It has its problems for sure, particularly around housing, but so does everywhere else in the developed World right now. So, with all that being said, I think you'll find its you who doesn't know what they're talking about.@@OakwiseBecoming
