Inverse Square rule. Ireland is very close to Britain and so less expensive to maintain. Hong Kong, Cape Town, India? Forget it. Too far. Logistics is a bitch.
Plus you no longer have colonial troops you can shuttle around the empire-commonwealth. No Indian units, no Aussies, no Kiwis or Canadians.
If you have to do it with English, Welsh & Scots without any affiliates, a slice of Ireland is about all you can manage.
Biden is full of blarney.
They'll fold...like a cheap suit.
i believe you are thinking of Scotland
Ireland wants to be a globalized country and part of the EU. They live and die about that. They wanted lower taxes but didn’t comprehend that in the EU that would come back to smash them.
Truth in advertising, I'm not Irish. Just poking fun.
Huh?
