the amount of people applying for Irish citizenships could very well increase again!
So this is an interesting fact btw: it depends on how the tuition fees are determined. For example, in my experience some people have the misconception that as a UK citizen, you will pay home fees by default. Unfortunately that's not true - as it stands, where you've lived trumps your citizenship. I.e. if you're a UK citizen that has lived outside of the EU for too long, you're shit out of luck and paying international fees.
I think it works the same in Ireland, so you need to have lived in an EU country for 3 out of the last 5 years - even if you have Irish citizenship. So for the short term, having citizenship but living in the UK would help, but in 2 years, that'd be over too (if you're just living in post-Brexit UK).

Ahah.
So that then stuffs Irish in NI as that becomes BrexitLand.
But according to the GFA Irish in NI have the same rights as Brits in NI. So by Brits (England basically but not London or NI Or Scotland and no longer Wales either) going BrexitLand everyone gets downgraded...fairly ;)
Equality strikes ;)

Well, yes, it can be hard to justify making the distinction.
Though if they make an exception for Irish citizens living in NI...the amount of people applying for Irish citizenships could very well increase again!
