>The Congressional Friends of Ireland, or Friends of Ireland, is an organization in the United States Congress that was founded in 1981 by Irish-American politicians Senator Ted Kennedy, Senator Daniel Moynihan and House Speaker Tip O'Neill to support initiatives for peace and reconciliation in Northern Ireland.[1]
>Each year in March, the Irish Taoiseach visits the United States for Saint Patrick's Day. A Shamrock Ceremony takes place in the morning at the White House where a crystal bowl containing shamrock, a traditional symbol of Ireland, is presented to the President in the Oval Office. This is followed by a Friends of Ireland luncheon hosted by the House Speaker in the U.S. Capitol or the Rayburn House Office Building.[4][5] The luncheon is attended by the President, Vice President, the Taoiseach, the Speaker, and other officials.[6] In the evening, a Saint Patrick's Day Reception takes place at the White House.[7]
What the fuck is this horseshit.

This is Ireland using their diaspora for political gains.
It seems that the UK-US special relationship is not the only one to be special.

yes and Kennedy being an Irish Catholic was controversial while he was campaigning

How do we solve the Irish problem?

Ban the import of potatoes in the US and Ireland

Sink northern ireland into the sea and pretend it never existed.

annex them into the uk and ban the irish language

You always hear Americans saying they're German, Irish, Swedish or Italian but you never hear them boast that they're English.

based dogeater.

My initial instincts as an Irishman is it's terrible for Ireland. However, 4d chess and Donald may actually free Ireland from the EU shackles. Fucking glorious madman

>tfw parents larp as irish people and it's embarrassing

Because Anglo-American is the default native ethnic group of America. They have no need for a hyphenated identity.

Because not that much of them are actually. There are more people with German and Irish ancestors than people with English ancestors

>((((they)))) were irish all along and not jewish

Meanwhile ford taxes all those government gibs to "grow" then ship their stuff to Mexico.

Nobody in the US honors its English heritage and it's the most looked down upon one. Look at the amounts of American identifying as Irish or German vs the handful that want to be English lol

it's more germanic/celtic/latino imo

Paddies and jews make bad news

This is what I mean. Germans were Nazis and shit but still more Americans boast that they're German. Identifying as English probably means you want the US to go back to the crown.

>paternal grandfather was an english soldier that had a fling with irish-american grandmother during a visit
>father still identifies as irish
kek

the good ppl of ireland

The return of a hard Irish border would probably be bad for the UK, they don't need a Gaza Strip in their own backyard again.

But then again a no deal Brexit puts Britain in a hard situation. Either let NI retain some EU privileges and perhaps lose it down the road (along with possibly Scotland), or put up the hard border again and possibly lost NI (along with possibly Scotland).

But what will probably happen is a no deal Brexit with Britain holding onto both countries thanks to Unionist majorities in both that voted to leave the EU/remain in Britain at different times. Britain will triumph again.

Imagine identifying yourself with your whore of a mother rather than your chad of a dad.

People in England with some Irish or Scottish great grandfather do it too. Being English is boring and somewhat embarrassing

Both thrive in the UK and US.
I guess the most immigrants were actually from the then poorer parts of middle/western Europe like Sicilians, Germans from the Lower Saxony and Hamburg area and Ireland. Or they think Brits are all homos like Hugh Grant.

Who was it Britain sent us to back up the Serbs against?
The Serbs love us for it neway

she was definitely a whore and she put him up for adoption. he had a single phone call with her ever and she told him to fuck off. then she died.
I think he larps as irish because of his adoptive father though.

Yet US girls cream themselves when they hear Brits talk posh.

They like any bong accent to be honest. Most people here are retarded and can't even tell them apart. They'll even think aussies are bongs.

Most generic white Americans that aren't the result of some FOB migrant family often have English ancestry, which is the largest ethnic group in the US. But they prefer to identify with smaller amounts of Irish of German heritage because it's less shameful

This is it

>any bong accent
They don't all sound posh and sophisticated ya know

I know but I'm saying women here don't know or care.

Game of Thrones means your women will cream over Gazza the norferner, IQ: 9, because he sounds like Jon Snow.

Then I guess my Hugh Grant theory applies.

Hugh Grant is considered attractive. Think of Stephen Fry as why they prefer to be German or Irish

Because Anglo-Americans are the original Americans. There's no need to honour it because "American identity", in its truest sense, is just an extension of English identity.

I said native (original) ethnic group, not immigrant groups.

If that is so why do all these Anglo Americans massively identify as Irish and German?

Being English is usually either associated with being an oppressive colonialist/imperialist or a trashy working class football hooligan.

For me its being a lowerclass imperialist

Honestly if your government mandated you repeat a loyalty oath everyday before school, work, and sporting events claiming the English are the liberators of mankind and the UK the freest country on earth you'd probably have more self-esteem.

Maybe they want to sound interesting?
English ancestry is considered boring is because it's the default ethnic group.

>I said native (original) ethnic group, not immigrant groups.
My bad. I'm rather surprised how little Native American DNA the average person has. I know they got wiped out and diseased but one would think they'd get slave banged like the imported African slaves.

Why are there never any Irish flags in these threads? It's almost like there are barely any left in the world and the ones still around don't give a shit about any of this so it's all a bunch of bullshit.

Claiming to be English would probably make you look cool these days. I should practice a fake accent to deceive the mutt women.

Muh freedumb is a meme. No one considers these nonexistent "values" a real source of national pride.

it seems like Northern Irish posters are more common than Irish posters around here

Is postbrexit bongland going to a third world country? They seem to be burning all of the bridges behind them

>fade into obscurity
>still the big man of the commonwealth
doesn't sound so bad

Without a doubt.

It's a meme because you haven't repeated to yourself enough that it's real.

The US is probably the 20th or 30th best country in the world, but routine loyalty oaths and chants have managed to convince everyone we're number 1 despite terrible infrastructure, healthcare, working conditions, and education system.

You have far more social services than we do, imagine what you could achieve if you only believed in yourself.

wtf

If by a while ago you mean like 100+ years ago then sure. Irish diaspora have had massive political pull in the US for a longer time in our history now than they’ve been disenfranchised from politics entirely because other Americans looked down upon them as subhumans.

The UK would probably still lay claim to Ireland if it weren’t for American micks putting pressure on your government to grant them independence.
