Not only will the UK have to put money into supporting it through Europe but it concerns us so much we are willing to put extra money above and beyond that which Europe will require us to.

Obviously a sensitive subject for you, the injustices heaped upon the Irish Nation over the centuries by the English. For that I do of course apologise.

I'm certainly not anti-English Shasown, I do find though on this site that there are a few people who are blatantly anti-Irish and yes I do get annoyed about that sometimes (I'm not talking about you btw)
