UK government responds to post-Brexit concerns and of course it's all the fault of those pesky EU negotiators

Re: Bored by Brexit?

I don't think that's the will of the people in Ireland.

The country's name is Ireland by the way... otherwise it's just as silly as if someone dropped the word Italia or Deutschland in the middle of an English sentence for no reason whatsoever.

In UK law and media it was called Eire (not even Éire) right up until the Good Friday Agreement in 1998 because the English establishment still hadn't got over losing it and refused to call it Ireland.
