Are you, like, nuts? Telling the Irish that they are British and live in what British rightwing nutjobs term the "British Isles" is about as obtuse as the British can get. That British viewpoint is clearly the minority viewpoint, a term which reflects the inability of a certain British underclass to get over the rapid decline of British power and prestige in the past 80 years. And if you are so sure that it is a "minority viewpoint" in Ireland, then perhaps you'll find this term plastered all over the place by Irish politicians and media, not to mention official government statements supporting its use and the incorporation of this term in international treaties between the government of Ireland and your own government? Oh, guess what! It's nowhere to be seen. Wow, I wonder why. 86.42.71.111
