Eyes of king Richard Proved. There. Worth Today they are Remembered for their bravery in the heat of Battle. On the out break of the first world War. Many came from Across the border to Fight for. King and. Their country. The sad fact is. Those that Came from. Over the Border. Are still not Given there right of Place.

Aged out of the Irish foster system in 1989, absolutely nothing for me in Ireland so went to the UK and joined the Royal Navy. They ended up paying a substantial amount towards my university fees. Spent some of the best years of my life there and owe them the life I live today. Living in France now so never did go back to Ireland

The Kingdom of Ireland lasted from 18 June 1542 until 1 January 1801, your dates in your titel are incorrect.

Was the national anthem of the Kingdom of Ireland from September 1745 until 1 January 1801 and then of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1 January 1801 until 6 December 1922. It is not the national anthem of the majority of Ireland but continues to be used as the anthem of Northern Ireland

@JacktheFilmFanatic-vu1nk I agree whole heartedly, its just mainly Identity politics and golorification if even such as the terrible Portadown or the Potato famine. I'd be lying if I didnt say I would like a 32 county independent irish state its what i believe in but in this climate no. The type of independent Ireland I would like is the vision of the United Irishmen and that rebellion but that was ruined by Scullabogue

There was more sectarianism in the Irish Defence Forces and bigotry when I was there as a Southern Irish Protestant, it was disgusting but today in the Irish army you dare not say boo as someone would get offended....Being a protestant in the Irish army was for example made to stand attention outside the chapel on sunday when mass was on...Look it up as that was a fact right into the 90's
