Regardless, Ireland is foreign to Britain whether it's the "British Isles" or not
Not as foreign as mainland Europe or anywhere else in the world though.

Of course it is, a foreign country is a foreign country. See there you go proving I was right all along.

Are you really this desperate to make a point about Ireland being a law onto itself?

What does that even mean? "A Law onto itself"? We're not part of Britain therefore we're a foreign country to Britain, as foreign as any other country that isn't part of Britain. What part of that is confusing to you?

Keep looking for trouble. That’s all I can say.

No comment on the point I made then? Just a passive aggressive sound bite? Next time you make one of these Polls, maybe have a think about it a bit more unless you are actually doing it to be a dick?

I restricted foreign to outside the British Isles on the poll out of convenience. Specifying non-British Isles as opposed to non-British was already me trying not to limp in Irish people with Brits.

You can go even more pedantic on me all you like though.
