As an Italian myself, I can tell that from what I learned the government decoded not to build a bridge between continental Italy and Sicily for 4 major reasons: 1 there would be no roads to connect the bridge to the rest of the railroad system 2 even if that gap is very small, the water is very deep 3 there is a fault right in between the Mediterranean that passes between the Messina canal so there would be a risk for earthquakes. 4 we really suck at building bridges

I think that following the Good Friday Agreement, which explicitly mandates that Ireland can reunify at any time and without needing Britain's permission, it's a stretch to still call NI an occupied territory. The thing that has kept NI part of the UK is the will of the people of NI. (And by the way, that will is visibly weakening - there's a Stormont election in May, and Sinn Fein are currently leading in the polls, so that border poll might not be too far away...)
