mrbradlymrmartin posted:then why do they call it the united kingdumb of great britain AND northern ireland Because the biggest island in the British Isles is Great Britain and Northern Ireland is on Ireland, but is politically separate from the Republic of Ireland and there's no separate term for someone from the UK basically. I'm guessing British came into use between the union of the crowns of Scotland and England in 1603 and the 1800 Act of Union that created the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.

They don't have the same parties, differ on many laws, still not so much dogwhistle as foghorn their sectarian shite and the parties allied to the theoretically credible British-not-Bradish ones are dead. The DUP might have 10 MPs in the house of commons, but so what?, if Varadkar offered the PM 10 thatcherite Fine Gael men for a billion quid, she might go for it.

i can appreciate the Liberalism inherent in simultaneously believing gay sex to be morally wrong while opposing any legislation discouraging it but it's kind of a bad fit for the party that's trying to be the socially liberal fiscally conservative-ish third party
