It was with some bemusement I watched the above video, which is a full 10 minutes, and not once it is acknowledged that Catholics of Ulster, as they are referred to in the video, have an Irish component to the their Identity, and this too is a source of conflict in Northern Ireland, as they are being discriminated against on that basis as well.

Was this use of language deliberate? Did the British establishment seek to avoid the concept that these citizens had an identity outside of the British one? Did they deliberately seek to frame the conflict as purely sectarian, or was this simply a bias emerging? I am conscious that this clip was created for the benefit of viewers in Great Britain, and the framing of the conflict as mainly sectarian, partly economic, but not at all as a conflict between two nationalities, would be influencing their perception of what's occurring in Northern Ireland. Is this a factor in how the narrative is being crafted? Is the narration avoiding introducing the idea to people in the rest of the UK that part of the UK has citizens who do not identify as British?

Furthermore, the narration of the clip ends on the line "this land, and it's oddly devout people" seem to suggest that people in Northern Ireland are odd/strange for allowing religion to form such a key part of their identity. Is this use of language deliberate, or is it a bias showing? I find the remark questionable given similar divisions would have also existed in parts of Scotland at the time/that religion would have also being a significant identity in parts of Scotland at the time.
