80 million claim Irish ancestry. So what? That does not mean they are Irish. Ever hear the term Plastic Paddies? How many Irish citizens are living abroad?
SeanBM
80 million can return to Ireland whenever they wish? Is David McWilliams a fool? He argues the same point. These people have Irish blood, Irish ancestry, and many of them have an interest in Irish customs and traditions, our culture and language. They view themselves as Irish.
Ha ha ha, you are changing, first they are Irish, then they are plastic paddies ha ha ha.
There are millions of Poles abroad, much more so than Irish.
Ha ha ha ha
absolutely NOT.In 1995, President Mary Robinson reached out to the "70 million people worldwide who can claim Irish descent."[53] Today the diaspora is believed to contain over 80 million people.[54]
A plantation- An original settlement in a new country; a colony.
Is not what it is, you are not all there.
Thats what we have here, a Polish plantation in Ireland.
Rubbish
In politics and in history, a colony is a territory under the immediate political control of a state.
Can you not see that noone believes a word you say, only a true nutter thinks it is everyone else NOT himself and boy do you fit the name nutter.
Hi Paddies.....hows she cutting today? How you getting on with the planty thingy majig?
I am organising spot checks at the airports and ports of our great nation. We are stopping anyonr with a shovel, pick or spade that look as if they have the intention of planting any sort of objects on our soil.
So far we have nothing to report but its early days yet.
I see we have the same comedian on again tonight.
ha ha ha ha, ah it is worth it just for the laugh that gave me :)
You are all paddies with Polish girlfriends, therefore biased
Sure you are the only paddy in the world, we don't count and neither do the 80 million others.
Wow you got some loony ego.
