Quote from: gallsman on February 02, 2025, 06:26:26 AMNo no no, eat your humble pie. You said anyone born in the North are automatically Irish nationals. This is categorically untrue. The constitution is not "nitpicking". You're just wrong.
I wrote that the latest amendment  you are harking on about applies to all of the 32 counties not just the northern 6. Do you have anything to take issue with in my full reply to your post except to hark back (in nitpicking fashion) upon my original post on this matter which obviously did not cover all the citizenship criteria.
Everybody in the north (edit. born to at least one Irish national ) is automatically an Irish citizen and of course British as well. Unless you have renounced your British citizenship you're still British in the eyes of the law and subject to British Law as Emma found out.
And for anyone's information, those born in the 6 counties  to  parent/s or grandparents who never acknowledged their Irish nationality are still automatically Irish citizens as well as British.


Out of interest, has any person here born on the nationalist side in the 6 counties renounced their British citizenship?

If you renounce Satan and all his empty works, is that not the same thing?

Is there a formal legal process for renouncing Brit citizenship?
Do you get a Certificate or some legal document?

Or do you just post on GAABOARD?

You get a certificate and a crate of Guinness and a year's membership of the AOH!
.... just an official letter of confirmation.

Is there is any benefit to doing it? Or disadvantage for that matter?

Sounds like something Jamie Bryson would do if the boot were on the other foot.

Yeah, think I'll just stick to saying I'm Irish, as psychologically, I'm fine  ;D

That's good. Was a good while ago I was playing football at a high level and boys from the 26 calling me british during games, it started to affect me. Freestate partitionists... I think now it would run off me...

I was never in that position Truthsayer but if I had been in my younger years it would have affected me for sure.

I was in London back in the 80s working on a site. I was starting to hang about with these boys from Wexford and one day in the canteen one of them talked about Londonderry. I banged the table and said its Derry not Londonderry. That was me made and held in great regard from that moment on.
