Article 2 of the Southern Irish constitution was amended as part of the peace agreement in Northern Ireland. It now reads:

It is the entitlement and birthright of every person born in the island of Ireland, which includes its islands and seas, to be part of the Irish Nation. That is also the entitlement of all persons otherwise qualified in accordance with law to be citizens of Ireland. Furthermore, the Irish nation cherishes its special affinity with people of Irish ancestry living abroad who share its cultural identity and heritage.

However a further amendment will shortly be put to refferendum. It will add the words "except Connor from Big Brother" to the end of the first sentence. It is expected that the amendment will be made. However it is not known how the British State will react. Sources close to David Cameron have quoted the PM as having said "Well we're not having him either"

hahahahaha, love it
