# ALTERNATIVE NAME 1: Statement 1 - In general, the group was opposed to the idea of a bridge between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Some of the disadvantages include the cost, time it takes to build and lack of need for a bridge. The group did concede that the Irish sea is a barrier and therefore a bridge would help with connecting Ireland and Great Britain, but overall, the cons of a bridge outweigh the pros.
# ALTERNATIVE NAME 2: Statement 2 - The majority of participants did not agree with the building of a bridge between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, citing disadvantages such as the time and cost it would take to build the bridge and that the ferry service would be sufficient. However, some participants conceded that a bridge would be better at connecting the two islands.
# ALTERNATIVE NAME 3: Statement 3 - Overall, the group was opposed to the idea of a bridge between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The cons of building the bridge would outweigh the benefits.
