For the posters living in the occupied six...
I only glanced over the article about this, but the first thought that came to mind is how can the British government have any control over what we display on our cars if in the south?
Nonsense idea that will never come to pass IMO.
I think they would have it that it would need to be part of the Number plate
I always though L was Learning and GB Getting Better - no ?
Technically, the north isn't even part of GB.
They can stick them up their holes
this will never happen
If you have an Irish passport & live in the North, can you put an Irish sticker on your motor?

Would you not have to be brave to this?
Most vehicle owners already identify themselves with either a poppy sticker or county colours hanging on the rear view mirror.
There isn't a mission this sticker will appear on my car, number plate or anywhere else for that matter.

There could be a 'OWC' sticker, just for driving up the Shankill & other hostile areas. Available from Jamie Bryson & other good outlets.
No one with any self respect is putting that sticker on their car.

Unless its part of the MOT. You can fail if your number plate is incorrectly displayed.
But this story is probably on a par with Boris and his prawn cocktail crisps.

Am I imagining it, or do some headbangers already run about with an "NI" sticker on their vehicle?

Can't recall seeing any of those.
But labelling your car is like wearing a GAA/Celtic Top . I don't have any distinguishable labels on mine, because I don't want a brick through my window.
No need for GB stickers. All cars from OWC already have significantly different number plates from those registered in RoI. Our cars have yellow rear plates and all RoI cars have the county on the plates. So, they can be distinguished easily.
Already we have our usual sectarian demarcation for NI cars when the owners take them to the continental mainland on holiday. Unionists have GB stickers, nationalist use IRL stickers and core Alliance voters use the non-existent NI stickers.
Also most use IRL stickers on cars on holiday to gain favour with the continental drivers who most likely will not like the British.

You can multiply that effect by about 1000 given recent developments.

In ancient times, NI cars never needed a sticker in the ROI, while GB ones strictly speaking did. Which makes sense as their sticker said GB.

Mind you, this is strictly illegal.
I'm commissioning a witch-hunt for the 4 jokers, lol
Many of us up here in the North do get excited by 'personalised' English number plates it has to be said.
A different discussion I suppose.
As recent ago as the nineties you wouldn't have seen many English plates and they would even have been treated with suspicion in some quarters but who blinks an eyelid at them now.
When the Republic comes, and the day is not far off, the vain will just have to have the same number plates as everyone else.
