Why is Ireland independent? They are just a bunch of potato niggers couldn't the British keep them in check?

Yeah mate that's how it went.
They weren't worth the trouble so we just let them pretend to be independent.

The birth of Irish nationalism was led by many Anglo-Irish and is based on Classical liberalism and Republicanism. It's not just about encouraging Irish Gaelic culture. Maybe you should read a book?
Sidenote: what is an Irish traveller? Is he genetically like an (mostly Romanian) gipsy that we have in continental Europe that originated in Northern India?

We don't want them

Nah just an isolated community of us that would move around a lot. Similar to gypsies in culture not racially of course.

How do they live nowadays? With welfare like our Northern India-origin gipsies plus smuggling/drug dealing?

>couldn't the British keep them in check?
Brits had more important shit to attend ij the rest of their empire.
The rest of the empire was richer in resources, it was just more convenient to them to center on other places.

Social housing/council housing or what they call halting sites. And yes a lot of them end up in crime because they don't really pursue education.
We really shoulda got rid of them when we had the chance.
They're not independent since they're in the EU
Q: How many potatoes does it take to kill millions of Irish?
A: Zero

They're not independent at all, they have an Indian in charge.

Ah! Ireland the home of Western European racism. The most countering and self depricating of racists. Black irish is the nickname for an irish coal miner yet they have motherf***ers believing they really meant black. They couldnt even stand their catholic British neighbors.
Irish are technically not independent. They are technically considered UKs extreme separatist, isolationist counterpart. Its good to have them on your side. Not too close. You dont want to entangle...bureaucracy...however see the cause and effect...youd put yellow tape around that country.
>fight for centuries to be an independent nation
>join a multinational governing body that basically takes away independence at your nearest convenience
Wtf Ireland
Now you guys have property tax too. Talk about some big missteps
