After having copied Ireland with the smoking ban the UK looks set to enforce charging shoppers for plastic bags - just like what Ireland does. Can we make March 17th a national holiday too? Will Ian Paisley be the next Prime Minister? Can Gordon Brown swim? (I know the last doesn’t relate to Ireland - I just liked the way the question sounded).
I am convinced that Ireland is the UK’s guinea pig. I have heard said Northern Ireland was a great training ground for the Falklands. What was Northern Ireland for?
I always liked that letter submitted to Viz:
Dear Viz,
Please can you give Ireland back to the Irish? And while you are at it, can you give them Hull as well?
