        I am sorry but whatever your disagreements about politics for an apparently cultured person to advertise they "hate" a whole people is very sad and probably more of a mirror to her than those she disagrees with.

        I was ignorant of the history surrounding Ireland until studying public law, and my class had no clue of the extent. It’s brushed under the carpet and I think it’s shameful that we’re so ignorant of tensions that we voted to reignite them

        Oh here we go. Like the Irish know alot about England? Like the Scots know a lot about Wales? Like the US knows a lot about anything outside its borders or even the next state? Give it a rest.

        Could it be that Ms Nolan has been associating with the wrong people in London & Birmingham. Has she spoken to most of 50+ million people in England? I don't think so. I am sure that Eire like most countries has drunken idiots so please don't judge the many because of a few.

        Ireland. The name of the country, in the English language, is Ireland.

        Ask yourself Thomas, why did they? Maybe because Catholics in the north of Ireland were treated like shit, burnet out of their homes and what did the British government do? Go on, give us a history lesson

        @mmegannnolan You observed some people from a group do something bad. Therefore, all 54m people in that group must also be bad. Isn't that the same fallacious argument racists use?

        That’s weird. Thought the Brits were well educated re: history & geography. It’s just 166 miles between Liverpool and Dublin. That’s the distance btwn N LA and SAN Diego

        In a 2016 poll most British people said they were proud of the British Empire & only a small number thought it was a bad thing. That should tell you all you need to know.

        It is not just Ireland that a lot of British people are ignorant about they are also ignorant about The United Kingdom, Europe and the Rest of the World. Poor education for many has been a real problem in the UK for decades.

        It is astounding how British politicians lack a basic understanding of the EU. How can they possibly negotiate a competent agreement when they don't even know how non-membership works? The EU keeps having to explain that they can't have the same advantages without membership

        Judging 'The English' on the actions of what was then an elite authoritarian regime is like judging 'The Irish' on the actions of the IRA. Worth knowing that in 1847 there was no democracy in England. Only the propertied rich got to vote. This is a devisive hate fuelling piece.
