What is this idiotic idea about Ireland rejoining the Commonwealth? |
In today's Irish Times is a snarky and condescending editorial apparently responding to some political movement for the Republic of Ireland to rejoin the British Commonwealth. Although I try to follow Irish politics fairly closely, this is the first I've heard that such an idea was even being considered. Needless to say, I was appalled. Whose idea is this? Surely it doesn't have much political traction, especially since Ireland is a member of the European Union and the U.K. is not. I'll research the matter a bit myself, but I'd appreciate your opinions on the matter. Additional Details I neglected to note that I'm American, so my perspective is not necessarily the same as a resident of Ireland or Northern Ireland. |

I should be doing something else

Yeah someone posted about it in another question so I did a search for the fella who wrote it.
Turns out he is a 'satirist' - That is his full time job. I read some of his other 'work' and I have to say it was all equally as idiotic as the piece that you read.
Not my idea of humour at all, and I find most things funny, so that is really saying something.
Coincidentially, according to his Wiki page he is a Unionist, which is fair enough, but why is he choosing to write for Nationalist leaning newspapers, and even more of a query is, why are they agreeing to print this crap?
PS - The UK are indeed part of the European Union (Not sure why you thought it wasn't?) but the currency is not Euro like most EU members, rather Pounds STG. |

There is absolutely no reason on this earth for the Irish Republic to even want to be part of the Commonwealth. |

The UK is a member of the European Union, it joined in 1973 along with the Republic of Ireland.
Whatever Political movement that is, it is a pathetic joke and these people will never ave any decent support, the Irish people laugh off such a suggestion |

Well it's the first time that I've heard of it too. Hopefully, it's not true as I don't think that there's a single person in this country that would agree with it or accept it.
I also thought the same concerning the point of the Republic being unable to join the Commonwealth because of it being a member of the EU. Hopefully this is just a mistake on the Irish Times part as I feel that if it is true then the country is going backwards in a big way. |

Most of what came back were the new Ireland for most of the Irish came to America, to be replaced by the Scots and English. |

I'm from Northern Ireland. I hate when there are talks of having a United Ireland. No. There's Ireland, on its own. And then there's Northern Ireland. Part of the UK and governed by her Majesty. |
