look, I get you, my people know how to get worked up into a lather over .187 square kilometers of deserted rock in the middle of the ocean
I also find that the more I age, the stronger of a compulsion I feel to explain a 16th century kidnapping of ceramic artisans to nearby strangers whenever I see a Japanese vase

You have my full permission to say "those islands"!
You should see how pissed ghouls and ghasts get when people mention the Isle of Wight.
Ireland if you mean Ireland and Britain if you mean Britain. It might just be me but I've never felt the need to have an encompassing term for both islands. If I needed to refer to both I suppose I'd say Ireland and Britain or vice versa
If there is some genuine need for a combined term then Celtic Isles would work fine I guess, just putting that out there
'the isles' 'the western isles', britain and ireland.
I'm lost here and there??
I’m Irish and 5k miles away so feel qualified to answer this, and a lawyer to boot!- I only care if it’s clear from the context that the person is using it from a position of ignorance - otherwise British Isles is geographically correct so fire away!
IONA (Islands of the North Atlantic) is the weird politically inoffensive term some people use.
I'll happily engage in the fuckery of trying to clarify the instant confusion by talking about These Islands while in a landlocked US state. Why you gotta be offensive?
