• Sorry to be a “snowflake” here, but could you guys stop using Eire to describe Ireland or the ROI? It’s inaccurate and continues to be used deliberately by conservative types who refuse to recognise Irish independence or whatever other petty reasons they choose to use it. Goes back to 1937 and has a history of misuse. Also, the correct spelling is Éire, eire having a very different meaning in the language.

  • Good point, is it still used by Ireland on their stamps, Euro coins and passports? If so its hard to pull people up for not realising it’s a bit contentious.
