home rule, Irish Church Disestablishment etc...

throughout the last 200 years, the Irish have used every possible tactic to disrupt the British:

Lord Salisbury claimed that 'The Irish are no more capable to govern themselves than a group of hottentots'

no - the Irish have always used violence to achieve their goals - the fenian bombings, Parnell, ira, United Irishmen, Wolf Tone - all violence

the British handled the Irish well, we always solved their grievances, but they were difficult and always wanted something else

and John Paul Jones is not my real name lol

If the british hadn't interferred in the first place then there wouldn't have been those grievances. in fact now that i think about it what grievances are you referring to?

Ignore JP Jones - he's a wind up merchant.

Names I consider to be very irish would include:-

Aine
Brid
Ciaran
Declan
Deirdre
Eamonn
Eilis
Finbar
Finnoula

I could go on for ever - but that is just for starters. :smile:
