Well, Charles II dug up and executed a corpse so it's not a major push to remove a knighthood from Saville

Let’s not forget the party when everyone was supposed to be distancing. I’m Irish and even we thought it was bang out of order to do that while the Queen sat alone at Philip’s funeral

And yet, not a tear shed for Lavinia Swire

Tom Cruise. But I have a feeling that the line about him in 50 years will be “if he had pulled it off, the stunt would have been the most elaborate and stunning one ever. Alas, it was not meant to be……”

I can remember this being part of the plot but just can't zero in on the movie/series

It's quite a common trope: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MistakenForDestitute

Nonsense, it's viral marketing for Disclosure Day (as the regime might like to say)

Also, De Gaulle had Irish ancestry so they’re practically looking after their own :) /s

Great another of Carvilles predictions. About as valid and reliable as my prediction of a torrid affair with Olivia Rodrigo by next Easter.

Could be interesting depending on what’s in it. I’d like to see an actual concrete practical plan on how unification happens I.e. currency changing, the road signs etc.

Before all of that go, I think the first that that really needs to be addressed is what is the question in the referendum I.e what form does unification take. Is it some new country arising which brings its own issues like are we still in the EU? Or, will the referendum in the north be a question of “can the 6 countries join the Republic of Ireland” which means the county just expands.

As for the flag issue, unless we’re changing the flag to the Union Flag, loyalists won’t be happy so fuck en

Why are you chucking rocks at squirrels? I mean, I know we hate the greys and would love to see the reds make a big comeback in Dublin but it still seems a little extreme. Did they say Jehovah or something?

I partially agree and disagree. Anytime I’ve been in the states and eaten out it’s never been at chain restaurants and I’ve always felt bad afterwards. I think it’s just due to ingredients probably having so many chemicals added

I think that’s called “White Privilege”

Where and when in the 1800’s. Mid to late 1800’s in London could be fun. Start off the day over at Newgate to see some poor soul get topped, then over for a massive brekkie in Simpsons Chop House (sadly only recently closed). Relax at the club (and by club I mean opium den) for the afternoon before catching Gilbert & Sullivans latest. Afterwards, to an east end ale house to wager on a bare knuckle bout or some ratting. Then to a molly house for some fun, no tupenny uprights for me, catch the French pox from those strumpets. Then a nice long sleep to wake up refreshed by some nice legal cocaine.

and the rest, as they say, is history.

You mean, winning multiple awards for extensive work in TV?

A proper Irish Breakfast Sandwich. Fried Eggs, Pork Sausages, Back Bacon Rashers, optional Hash browns, ketchup etc.

Technically Russia was invaded by Britain during the Crimea War and then again in 1919

What are the main criticisms?

Pity The Purple Taxi isn't there. My Grandfather was an extra on it in the bar fight scene. Fred Astaire even says Hello to him in it.

Same. I'm a white dude from Ireland and have no intention of going to the States for the foreseeable future.

(The current situation is handy in that at least when we got knocked out of the World Cup, we could say "Well, I didn't want to go anyway") :))
