Alot of people Say "im proud to be irish" ?

Question

i do....do you feel the same??!!

Answer 1

Why are you proud to be Irish. I'm Irish and to be honest when I look around and I see the country that I live in I don't know half the time if I should be proud or not.

The majority of Irish people seem to think its fine that our Island is sill split up and that its ok that we still have a foreign presence in our land.

our roads are shite in comparison with any other EU country.

We are a great people though having said all the above but I think it's an embarrassment that we are still partitioned and we have returned to being a British Lapdog.

Answer 2

I am not Irish, so i can't say it; but the Irish people have always been hard working and productive, and have contributed greatly to science, the arts, and of course great booze and beer.  You should be proud of your heritage!

Answer 3

Its not the real Ireland, it has 100s of 1000s of foreign nationals, this I dont have a problem with but it diminishes the true identity of ireland and the values and the things that we were once proud of
