Yep. While the south is a tax haven without a national health service, there is no path to a united Ireland. People in the south need to get a left wing block (SF + socdems, especially) into power and really reform the state before there will be a mass movement for unity

The UK is also one of the largest facilitators of corporate tax avoidance in the world.

Ireland's health system delivers significantly better health outcomes in comparison to the UK.

Life expectancy is higher, poverty is lower, inequality is lower, levels of education are higher.

The protestant working class of the North need to feel that their class interests are better served by a united ireland, both for us to win and also because thats the whole point of this cause
