Maybe Mary should offer her the country back and apologise for the condition it's in.

Will the Dubs line the streets again to welcome her waving their Union Jacks in their thousands, as they did the last time the British monarch visited the city!

Hence the nickname "Jacks" for the Dubs.

Serious question about sterling, how much has trade dropped from visitors to Ireland from the UK since the pound took a dive, i was over in 2000 and it wasnt cheap then!!!

I suppose the UK seems a cheap place to visit for you lads now......

Born in England to English-born parents who themselves had English-born parents.

Makes her English in my eyes.

Are you one of these culchies who regards anybody who can't trace their ancestry in the local village back to the famine a "blow-in"

Wonderul news. Time to embrace our biggest trading partner. I shall be unfurling a banner which reads "Ma'am, will one kindly consider taking us back under one's wing?"

The experiment is over imo. As with many of the former African colonies, we have proven ourselves clearly unfit for self governance. The Brits have had centuries experience of governening half the globe and we need to tap back into that imho. Sterling and the relative fiscal control that comes with it would be a massive added bonus.
