Replying To Seanfan:  "What percentage of Nationalists in the North would be prepared to pay extra taxes in a United Ireland??"
I would say also a lot of Nationalists in would not like to pay higher taxes either . Unionists will try to scare middle ground voters with the threat of financial catastrophe in a border poll (remember the British Government and Unionist groups in Scotland used similar tactics in their campaigns against Scottish independence) .

Approximately 25% of Sinn Féin voters and nearly 30% of SDLP voters-the two main nationalist parties-explicitly state they would switch their vote to against unity or abstain if it resulted in higher taxes and healthcare costs.

60% to 67% of voters in the Republic favor a united Ireland. Only ~31% to 41% remain in favor if tax increases are required. When asked about specific numbers, roughly 44% to 48% of voters in the Republic state they would be less likely to vote for unity if it left them €4,000 worse off per year.

Why, do you pay more taxes than me or anyone else in the North? In a United Ireland everyone would pay their share.

I was living in the UK at the time, and only got to know about hoganstand forum when a friend messaged me about Jim's post.
Jim's, wherever you may be, I hope you're doing well...
