Why did the allies not advance through northern Italy into Austria instead of the D-day landings?
To transport the Allied forces based in England would have been a huge undertaking, crossing U boat lines and sailing all the way down the European coastline. Crossing the English channel was a tad easier being only 26 miles across. Thus, the logistics of attacking through the south of France or through Italy were impossible. The time and movement involved would have also alerted the Axis forces, which would have made such an attack extremely costly.
There were only a limited number of spots across the channel which were feasible. This could have also been very costly if the Axis had been certain that's what the allies would do. But clever manipulation of intelligence, involving a "secret" message on a British corpse, dummy battalions composed of wood and inflatable tanks, and fake message traffic, convinced the Axis that the landing would take place in the south of France, and that a fake landing would be aimed at Normandy. This was so convincing that when the landing actually happened, it was many hours before the German High Command was convinced that the Normandy landing was the real thing.
there is also the slight problem that to invade Spain or Italy they would have had to attack Africa and gain a foothold there first

When does northern Ireland vote to become part of Ireland instead of the UK?
A referendum on Irish unity will be held, when it is believed that the majority of people in Northern Ireland want such a referendum to be held (i.e. when Sinn Fein and other nationalists take the majority of seats in the Northern Ireland Assembly). Talks will then be held with the British and Irish governments on holding a referendum and legislation will be introduced to allow a referendum to take place. Once that legislation has been passed the public will then vote on the legislated date on the constitutional future of Northern Ireland. At present unionists hold the majority of seats in the Northern Ireland Assembly. And recent public opinion polls have suggested that the majority of the Northern Ireland's (normally nationalist voting) catholic community want Northern Ireland to remain within the United Kingdom. So it is highly unlikely there will be any vote on Northern Ireland becoming part of Ireland for many years.
