Many Irishmen joined UK forces fighting Hitler.

In the course of the war, an estimated 70,000 citizens of neutral Ireland served as volunteers in the British Armed Forces (and another estimated 50,000 from Northern Ireland,[34] and this figure does not include Irish people who were resident in Britain before the war (though many used aliases). Those who deserted the Irish Army to serve in the British Army, on returning to Ireland were stripped of all pay and pension rights, and banned for seven years from any employment paid for by state or government funds

They whored themselves in the early 20th century resorting to terrorism for independence and sucking up to Germany in WWII

I say this as someone whose DNA per a paid study is 30% Irish and Ulster Scots

In tv it’s called jumping the shark moment....

Saw a link in there to a story from yesterday about Obama opening up his mouth again and accusing Hungary and Poland of being “authoritarian”. Sounds like it deserves a thread on here maybe, if you or someone else didn’t already do so.
