Sadly I do. I have no interest in 'being Irish' though unlike some pillocks. I was born here, my parents were born here-IM ENGLISH.

If being proud of my dad's heritage makes me a pillock, so be it.brooklandsblue2.0 said:Sadly I do. I have no interest in 'being Irish' though unlike some pillocks. I was born here, my parents were born here-IM ENGLISH.

No thats fair enough if it's your dad. It's the nobs (and they are nobs) who jump on the bandwagon saying 'Im Irish' cos one great grandparent was from Dublin that do my head in.....not as if that country has a lot to be proud of anyway (especially in Manchester!!), it seems as if most of them couldn't wait to leave to England or the USA!

When faced with mass eviction and starvation I think it natural to want to find a way to get out of it BB2. Do you know how many died in what is referred to as the British Genocide?
That many then pulled themselves out of the gutter in their new country, worked hard in quite awful conditions and gave their children a chance of a better quality of life is to be applauded.

All I know is that a lot of these lovely people supported or where in the IRA. They bombed my city so I have little or no time for them. And spare me the 'minority' blah blah blah.....people may not have all planted bombs but they were in full support....look at the donations from the likes of Mc Donalds to NORAID and many other wealthy Irish ex pats/

And how do you know that these people did or thought as you state?
