It is not that the North is particularly narrow-minded, but that it is run by a mixture of Presbyterian and Catholic bigots.
Even so, the vote passed by a narrow margin, but was blocked by the DUP (effectively the political wing of the Free Presbyterian Church) using a “Partition of Concern” , a mechanism designed to prevent sectarian and bigoted legislation, not, as it was used here, to facilitate it.

Sorry but Northern Ireland is Europe's Middle East, nowhere else does religious division have such an impact on Politics or society.
I'd rather explain black history to some hick from Tipp than the separation of (all) church and state to someone from the North.

After a rather wonderful offline tour there I decided on a short holiday there rather than Spain or S.A.
Only to find, not only are rural folks in Tipperary quietly racist but tribalist! They don't even trust folks from Kerry, Waterford, or Carlow! Don't even get them started on Dubs....
