Er, the Republic of Ireland is not part of Britain. The overwhelming
number of people who identify as Irish came to this country when the
British *******s tried to starve them to death. Ireland was a net
exporter of food during the Great Hunger, sending beef to the damned
beef eaters. April will be the centennial of the Easter Rising when the
people started to throw off the British yoke.

The Scotch-Irish are another animal entirely. They're the Ulster Scots
that are still hanging onto the six counties by the skin of their
Presbyterian teeth.

In this analysis, the English are trailing the Africans, which the
English gifted us with, and the Mexicans by a good deal.

The real tie to Britain was the WASP plutocrats like Wilson and
Roosevelt that lied us into wars to support Britain.

I have no idea why the UK wants any part of Ireland. They're odder than the Welsh.
