have you got a map ? or an atlas ?

well if you do, have a look at it. You probably don't have a compass, so you can probably use your fingers... use a finger to measure the shortest point between england and ireland. Now, use the same finger to measure to the shortest point between america and ireland. Noticed anything? there's probably a 'legend' on your map which will help you decipher the distance in miles/km. Now, take the finger and stick it as far up your festering arsehole as possible

One of the best songs EVER FUCKING WRITTEN.

yeah and its the scots and the irish regiments that were bled dry to build your fucking hypocritical empire they were sent into the guns and made the empire for you because the english are pussies and would have broken

Pogues and a drinking song, no way!

Get's political here! So the english killed a king! congratulations! what else have you acomplished? Guess I could cite a few, thanks.

As for Northern Ireland and those fantastic lines the British drew on maps so well! I've had experieneces abroad and at home where the biggest argument (Catholic and Protestant) was not over your stupid political boundaries but what the best whisky is. I've seen more loyalty to Ireland on both sides. The way it should be.

A song stolen. Its about the working class english from the Bradford mills.

England, the place where we invented a class- the Working Class. England- the crucible of the Class War.

The english Working Class with their trade unionist organisational skills influenced history a lot more than is appreciated. We invented the strike as a political weapon. Before that we rioted on such huge scale that would put any modern day riots to shame. We killed a king.

Cymru/Wales was England's first colony.

Roman Catholic did Ireland in.

Good day

Fucking arsehole of the world, thats ireland. Englands first colony when we were still practacing. Fucked that one up and then went to America. And then we really fucked up- just look at the shit hole. Still, we did quite well with India and the rest of the world.

@richjohnf: In regards to the scenario that you mentioned regarding what would happen if you asked people in a bar who Northern Ireland belongs to, I'll grant that most of the Irish Catholics and British Protestants would disagree. This disagreement might even lead to violence. However, I'd be willing to bet you a large sum of money that the person who would most likely take a beating would be the one who asked the question. Neither of these groups appreciate outsiders stirring up trouble.

@richjohnf: If you look at the statistics on declining IRA and loyalist militia membership (which was never more than a few thousand to begin with), the statistics on the gradual decline in their violence since the mid-1970s, make note of the fact that nearly all these groups have officially declared a ceasefire, and make note of the contempt that both Irish and English seem to have towards American rabble-rousers, the only logical conclusion is that most of the English and Irish want peace.

@d33pS3Ad1v3r Hehe...ouch! I'm an irish descendant living in Nova Scotia. As far as the distance between us and Ireland... its what's in your heart, how you're raised and being taught about your own heritage and culture. Everyone wants to be Irish! It's such a little place with such big "fight"....who wouldn't?
