Interesting review of the prospects for a united Ireland in the Guardian Briefing this morning.

Michelle O'Neill saying she can see a unity referendum within 10 years. Possibility of Sinn Fein forming the next government in the Republic. Younger people in favour of united Ireland. Impact of Brexit, support for EU and economic case for unity. Decision in the hands of UK government and indication of the level of support they would need to see to move on this.

10 years seems a bit optimistic to me, but the direction of travel is towards a single Irish state within 20 years.
