Northern Ireland was formed and exists by consent by the parties involved.
As you sound like you’re an expert on Irish history, I’m sure you’ll remember there was a full fledged civil war fought in Ireland over the fact that the North was abandoned during the war for independence.
Yes, I have multiple members of my family that were killed in the troubles, so it’s pretty hard for me to forget.
But I also remember the good Friday agreement. Which was signed at the end up of that civil war by both Ireland and the UK and places a lot of weight on the idea of consent of the people.
Please stop trying to turn everything into a completely black and white binary so you can take a side and have an argument.

Yeah it exists with consent now, but you can’t say it was formed with consent. Its just a minor correction.
