Thank you for interviewing this lovely, emotionally intelligent man. Loved his TV programme Coast, his genuine love of the British isles was there for all to see, unlike these programmed, woke individuals who have taken over country file with the pronouncement that the countryside is fascist. Good god now none the TV channels have anything I would watch.
@@joanwilkins1096 Couldn't agree more Joan - despite being an academic, a celebrity and font of knowledge, Neil seems to have avoided the pervading idiots brigade. I have plenty time for Neil yet none for his otherwise masters. It appears that somewhere along the way, Neil accrued wisdom among his arsenal of abilities. Bravo for that. @Beverly Butler - Yes, now more than ever we need a North Star to steer by; in Neil, I think we could do a lot worse.
I could listen to Neil Oliver for hours to entertained, to learn and discover. There are very few people who can speak about history as he does. His lucky children.
@@jameslove7729 I was lucky enough to meet Neil Oliver during his Coast filming in a local pub _(no I wasn't, I didn't, I'm making this up it's just a joke)_ where I was rather giddy. "Mr Oliver!" I said - "I'm a great fan of yours, watched all of your archaeological documentaries - let me get you a beer; btw, what's your first name?" "Neil" I immediately sank to the floor and acknowledged his entitlement to *King of Scotland.*
It can be no coincidence that a Scottish student of History,has his finger so accurately on the pulse of what is really going on around us in the present times...we should be listening closely to Neil,he is a very astute commentator,who knows only too well that lessons learned from our past will foretell our future. We are hurtling towards a totalitarian regime,and it seems as though many of the turkeys are voting for Christmas....
When coast first started, it was an excellent programme, loved watching it with my children. Unfortunately now it has gone very preachy and woke, so can't watch it. My daughter, who is now grown up, is now interested in what Neil has to say now and remembers him from her childhood.
I ran away to Romania years ago. My brother always spoke highly of Neil, he met him in his garden at KP before joining me in Romania and said he's a brilliant down to earth guy. We need more people like Niel. Protests happening right now in my city, more in Bucharest. The rot is very deep and hopefully more people will start to understand how the world actually works and right now we are in a very dark position hopefully we will conquer but soooo many sheep.
@@gingef5197 He's on the MSM because he's broadly compliant; Neil Oliver doesn't go far enough; if he did, no one would see him again on TV or anywhere else on the MSM.
Listening to Neil on talk radio truly warmed my soul. MSM has become unwatchable of late. Mike Graham and JHB have kept me sane in these crazy times. It’s time we give the old normal a chance. END LOCKDOWN NOW. 👍

In truth, you don't need any deity to defeat an organisation of this type. Declaring itself to be a _nationalist_ movement: devolvement from the UK but with aspirations to partner with the clearly corrupt and ineffectual EU? Dichotomies abound. Left to their own devices, these idiocracies will eat themselves, but not before bestowing their populations with incredible grief. We had a European "National Socialist" movement a while ago - it didn't start or end well. The combination of Sturgeon and Salmon was (forgive the pun) a little fishy to begin with, and we can all see the fallout that is happening right now. I wonder if there is a political pandemic circling the world - Sturgeon appears to be suffering from terrible mental problems; she can't seem to remember _anything_ to any degree of importance... Let's track back to the Nuremberg trials and change the plea from *"I was simply following orders"* to *"I don't have any recollection of that"* - sure, that'll work.
@Digger Gardi Scotland doesn't meet the most basic criteria to join the EU, but for some reason they'll still push ahead on it....then we end up being the new Greece!

I just finished watching this video. Actually, I'm really grateful the YT algorithm brought me here as I didn't know this man (I'm European, but not British). I enjoyed this conversation very much as I don't only agree with what he said so eloquently on a general basis, but because it was thought- provoking as well. He seems to be someone gifted with common sense (which is what I appreciate almost above anything else) and a solid academic background. So I will definitely check out more of his videos. This made my evening :) Edit: the interviewer was great as well, asking questions and actually listening without interrupting!
I am here 3 weeks after you & feeling the same gratitude & appreciation for these words & wisdom and common sense. I think I was somehow led to find some videos that include Mr. Oliver (I had not heard of him before) so I could hear someone calmly & thoughtfully speak words that are very closely to the same as mine. It has given me comfort & made my evening too.
So true. Read everything and read well. Even if you don't get it all on the first try, so what? The great books are great, why? Because we can't stop reading them, individually or collectively.
Books need to be especially teaching the cause and downfall of many past times. But the media goes with the flow, money from untruths is as good as anything. People en masse debate, no, maybe think,if they have time from the harness they wear. Money. The ball and chain and gag of truth.
Congrats to the journalist and sorry I didn’t catch his name. He asked questions and listened and let Neil answer without interrupting. Great interview and content. Thanks.
I can see your reasoning and that may be true for many people, but as someone who has been furloughed on 80% pay, I am very relieved to be returning to work next week, both from a financial and mental health point of view.

Indeed, and that’s why the perpetrators (for this is a crime) chose it as a tool to destroy the sovereign currencies of the democracies.

"Free speech is being made to sound like a right-wing fetish". I'm in the US and never a truer statement was spoken. I could never have imagined that it would get like this in my lifetime. I love listening to Mr. Oliver; he is a refreshing voice of sanity in the very insane world that we find ourselves in currently. This was an excellent talk and I truly appreciate that the interviewer allowed the guest to speak without interrupting. Thank you for posting.
Neil is a rational thinker and one that sees what is going on and has a genuine heartfelt desire to inform people for the betterment of society. Good on you Neil. Thank you for standing up and may God bless you. I'm actually shocked that the Sun is doing this interview!
@@gingef5197 Yes, you could be right, and I completely understand. Until around 20 years ago, I was very naive and l believed in most of the things that l had been taught about life, people, society and the world at large etc. In my late 20s l began to seriously question the main consensus, and I think very differently now. Maybe the people who have been so blindly and unthinkingly complying with this madness, are incapable of, or are choosing not to think clearly about our current situation, out of fear? Or it could be that they understand perfectly well what's happening, and they're actually fine with it.
The thing I like about Neil Oliver is his sincerety shines through what he is sayng! So many others show a comlete lack of sincerety to my mind and seem to be acting from a script
@@FizzVizard Okay fair enough lol. 😁 Who was the fella in The Next Generation. The Time Traveller. The one with 3 fingers on each hand? Is he more suitable? 😊
Such a great interview. It's not every day that someone who recommends freedom of thought and media gets time to speak. We need to learn from the past, not destroy it. Defend freedom Defend the truth.
Mr. Neil Oliver, I see your intention and that's all I need. Your eloquence and passion fill in the rest. Im not worried about which one drives the other. I know the difference and I see it in you. Also, I am confident where one morally lands from there. Your passion speaks volumes, as does the unsaid. I cannot thank you enough! 🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️💪💪💪
If I recovered from a bout of flu in February and got hit by a bus tomorrow would I be counted as a flu death ?? This madness has to stop. I'm surprised very few people speak of this
Be careful now that you know it’s tomorrow. We make our own tomorrow by going along with today’s system. It’s notaone man change they are talking about, it all the huge wealth they have. Allis overpowered by the control it has over any new ideas. The make it real or the real that we live in.not a freedom. Servitude to money, like we go and do as it points us, free money , bits of IOU to be payed back by us to support the the wealth of others lending us, to keep us quiet. Onlyto be paid with interest, yes back from the future of our children and Grandchildren. A promise to pay by the unborn. Like the WW2 invest in your future freedom. Pay and be coerced in instructions of the lender. We are not long just finished paying for WW2. Glory at a cost of millions of people and our potential to earn to pay back our borrowed help. For Glory and some Flags.investors helped too. Themselves.
Good on this fella for speaking out. I vaguely knew him as a guy off the TV and it takes balls to speak out from the MSM, especially since you'll pretty much definitely be demonised and lose your job
I could listen to Neil Oliver all day long - his tone of voice, the inflection of his words, his intellect his whole persona is magnetic. Even tho I'm an Irish Nationalist I still am almost mesmerized and impressed and in basic agreement with everything Neil has to say. I may not understand how he feels British rather than or as well as Scottish but I defend his right to feel that way and in the same way, I would hope that he would defend my right to be an Irish Nationalist. Well done to Steven Edginton for another brilliant interview and excellent journalism.
About his last point. I'm not proud of people from the past. I think what they did was great, and I feel it's my duty to fight to continue their legacy.
Where did the interviewer get the idea that "The Public" our crying out for more restrictions on their freedoms. Government organised Polls are not worth taking into account on the basis of bias.
Yep! I thought Neil debunked that very well. The “ government “ or rather tyranny that is answerable to no one now, are lockdown mad. Anyone who thinks they are going to stop lockdowns in June is sadly mistaken
The interviewer’s own publication uses government commissioned polls regularly, and they even commission their own. It wouldn’t be in that young man’s interests to expose the uselessness of polling as a mechanism for taking the nation’s temperature.
Steven Edginton is excellent as usual - concise, responsive, listens and lets the guest answer. We all get to hear them speak their minds, and it takes great skill to bring that out.
“Add & not subtract from history.” how very correct he is. Pulling down statues in my opinion doesn’t change history. If anything, I think they should be left standing as a reminder not to let history repeat itself!
@@robertdore9592 yes really because it’s honest and informed. Also brave no pandering to a particular audience, which even my YT hero’s are prone to do.
This guy is just the greatest ever , I’ll walk beside you anywhere Neil, I’m British and very proud of it, we must look forward and never look back to what our past masters did, Right or wrong , what’s been said and done is over, We HAVE to look ahead if only for the sake of our children and their children’s children,,,,
I wholeheartedly agree with Neil about Scottish independence,as a Highlander,I have always been proud to call myself British while travelling the world,and also as a Scot- I see no contradiction there at all,much as a New Yorker would also be proud to be an American. What does grate on me however,is when foreigners refer to England,or even London as being Britain,while ignoring the fact we are a United Kingdom of four Nations,who have all contributed richly to our shared identity.. I even hear English folk doing this,which is pretty sad. United we stand,divided we fall,and never have so many seeds of division been sown between us all ,as in the present times.
Need you more than ever Neil to keep the communication channels open, a voice for free speech, power to you Neil and credit to The Sun for supporting this free speech (never thought i would be praising The Sun ! 😳)
One very articulate speaker is Mr Neil Oliver. His knowledge and insight is always a pleasure to listen to... Scots really need to pay attention to this man.
I do but the problem is that there is so many brainwashed eejits up here that they are trying to stifle the talking points that neil raises just for( muh independence)and they don't realise the importance of anything else,ie shocking results in education, NHS, economy,and the way sturgeon is running us into the ground,but all they think about is the way sturgeon is on the tele telling us how to act during lockdown and when we get out of it,but even the new hate crime bill is now up and running it is making people scared to talk,, sorry for long answer, hope it helps,
@@gazzthered5659 I’m a Scot living in England.. I’m astonished at how compliant the majority of Scots are with EVERYTHING (Not to mention the ‘V’ word) Scotland the brave no more! And the hate crime bill- my friends of 35+ years are now ‘offended’ by what I say- what the hell is that all about? Practically nobody up there knows what is going on outside Scotland. A small population is easy to manipulate and control... It saddens me deeply. eejit- made me laugh! Not heard that for a long time.
Really enjoyed listening and feel growing confidence that there are people out there who are logical and can express themselves clearly, because oh boy, don't we need it.
Wow, what a fantastic interview - this guy, Neil Oliver, is brilliant and calm and has sooooo much common sense. I love the Scottish Accent - I've just finished watching the 5th season of Outlander and I'm fascinated by the Scottish Highland Culture and the entire U.K. Thanks for sharing you wisdom!
So good to hear another voice saying what I have been thinking every time I hear about these "polls" that say people all support our rights being taken away. I also talk with folks when taking the dog to the park etc and I don't hear anyone saying that they still support lockdowns. Anger and grief for the victims of lockdowns is rising everywhere here.
It should be pointed out that the Scots were enthusiastic participants in the British Imperial Project not because they saw anything intrinsically meritorious about it but because it offered them employment. Scots were the officers and administrators of empire. One should never forget that Scotland only joined the Union because most of its wealthy and noble people were bankrupted by the Panama Scandal. They faced destitution otherwise. What were they to do but join the Union? Scottish kings had ruled England only recently so it was not too painful a process!
Well done Neil we are all stronger together even Southern Ireland it’s like family’s we all fight but when something happens the family all pull together I was born in England my mother is welsh and my dad is Irish so I am British like you Neil I think the SNP and IRA stand for separation and I am against any of it
Wtf! The republic of Ireland has no link to the UK now apart from the northern counties still under British rule. Not sure what you're trying to say about the IRA today as that is not around as a freedom fighting army since the republic was formed. Do you live in the United kingdom? Britishness is an national identity, nationalism personified whereas ethnicity as bf culture is varied and in many ways separate with the United kingdom of Britain. Many Scots like the Irish feel a sense of cultural and ethical uniqueness and that gives way to a desire for autonomy. Wanting to belong to Europe is a separate matter. You identify as British but if you're father is from the republic then ethnically you can identify as Irish as being Irish today means to be apart from the remnants of Empire.
Wow! Did not expect this kind of erudite discussion from the Sun. Always loved your programmes Neil, & great to see you stick your head above the parapet with some intelligent & nuanced points.
God Bless Neil Oliver a shining light in otherwise dark world 🌎

Unfortunately it's not incompetence when it's planned and the objective is to destroy us psychologically.
Incompetence? ;D
"Free speech is being made to sound like a right-wing fetish". I'm in the US and never a truer statement was spoken. I could never have imagined that it would get like this in my lifetime. I love listening to Mr. Oliver; he is a refreshing voice of sanity in the very insane world that we find ourselves in currently. This was an excellent talk and I truly appreciate that the interviewer allowed the guest to speak without interrupting. Thank you for posting.
first time in years I have enjoyed anything by the Sun. Hope you carry on this way.
Neil is a rational thinker and one that sees what is going on and has a genuine heartfelt desire to inform people for the betterment of society. Good on you Neil. Thank you for standing up and may God bless you.
I'm actually shocked that the Sun is doing this interview!
Neil is the personification of why a historical perspective is so important. If only more people would learn from this
We are in need of a Nuremberg trails to deal with these individuals involved in crimes against humanity.
More people need to hear this..
@Stephen Day True Stephen, but unfortunately it's obvious that too many just don't want to listen.
@@lynzannabel6990 but isn't that because they've heard so much fake, they don't what is true anymore!
@@gingef5197 Yes, you could be right, and I completely understand. Until around 20 years ago, I was very naive and l believed in most of the things that l had been taught about life, people, society and the world at large etc. In my late 20s l began to seriously question the main consensus, and I think very differently now. Maybe the people who have been so blindly and unthinkingly complying with this madness, are incapable of, or are choosing not to think clearly about our current situation, out of fear? Or it could be that they understand perfectly well what's happening, and they're actually fine with it.
The thing I like about Neil Oliver is his sincerety shines through what he is sayng! So many others show a comlete lack of sincerety to my mind and seem to be acting from a script
Neil manages to put the way I'm feeling into words .
You are right, he speaks my views 100% too.
@@gingef5197 Right wing conservatives enjoy being told how they think. It helps, i know
What a man Neil Oliver is. I believe his parents are Vulcan, and you can tell they have passed their logic onto him. Live long and prosper.
No, Vulcans were totalitarian, Technocratic unfeeling commies, remember Spock saying 'the needs of the many out way the few"??
@@FizzVizard Okay fair enough lol. 😁 Who was the fella in The Next Generation. The Time Traveller. The one with 3 fingers on each hand? Is he more suitable? 😊
@@MrBillUp Well Ferengi are actually the good guys...
I can see him, daubed with woad, with a sword and shield, yelling a battle cry as he charges towards the English cavalry.
@rachael I think you misunderstand him - he’s not a Scottish nationalist and feels British.
Such a great interview. It's not every day that someone who recommends freedom of thought and media gets time to speak. We need to learn from the past, not destroy it. Defend freedom Defend the truth.
Well said, they could stop people saying what they think, but they can't stop people thinking what they think. N Oliver!
I'm more scared of the government than I am covid.
No virus has ever been isolated apparently
Mr. Neil Oliver, I see your intention and that's all I need.
Your eloquence and passion fill in the rest. Im not worried about which one drives the other. I know the difference and I see it in you. Also, I am confident where one morally lands from there. Your passion speaks volumes, as does the unsaid.
I cannot thank you enough!
🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️💪💪💪
If I recovered from a bout of flu in February and got hit by a bus tomorrow would I be counted as a flu death ?? This madness has to stop. I'm surprised very few people speak of this
There have been ZERO cases of the flu??? Everything is covid, covid, covid
I personally heard of a case where a still born was marked as covid
Be careful now that you know it’s tomorrow. We make our own tomorrow by going along with today’s system. It’s notaone man change they are talking about, it all the huge wealth they have. Allis overpowered by the control it has over any new ideas. The make it real or the real that we live in.not a freedom. Servitude to money, like we go and do as it points us, free money , bits of IOU to be payed back by us to support the the wealth of others lending us, to keep us quiet. Onlyto be paid with interest, yes back from the future of our children and Grandchildren. A promise to pay by the unborn. Like the WW2 invest in your future freedom. Pay and be coerced in instructions of the lender. We are not long just finished paying for WW2. Glory at a cost of millions of people and our potential to earn to pay back our borrowed help. For Glory and some Flags.investors helped too. Themselves.
Good on this fella for speaking out. I vaguely knew him as a guy off the TV and it takes balls to speak out from the MSM, especially since you'll pretty much definitely be demonised and lose your job
Superb interview. What a sensible chap he is.
Di ye Ken Big Ben ?🤔🙂🤭.
@@raymondtaylor6049 Aye I do.
@@BigBenn2014 😁😄🤣🙏
I could listen to Neil Oliver all day long - his tone of voice, the inflection of his words, his intellect his whole persona is magnetic. Even tho I'm an Irish Nationalist I still am almost mesmerized and impressed and in basic agreement with everything Neil has to say. I may not understand how he feels British rather than or as well as Scottish but I defend his right to feel that way and in the same way, I would hope that he would defend my right to be an Irish Nationalist. Well done to Steven Edginton for another brilliant interview and excellent journalism.
Thanks for Uploading.
About his last point. I'm not proud of people from the past. I think what they did was great, and I feel it's my duty to fight to continue their legacy.
God damn Neil speaks the truth
Where did the interviewer get the idea that "The Public" our crying out for more restrictions on their freedoms. Government organised Polls are not worth taking into account on the basis of bias.
Yep! I thought Neil debunked that very well. The “ government “ or rather tyranny that is answerable to no one now, are lockdown mad. Anyone who thinks they are going to stop lockdowns in June is sadly mistaken
The interviewer’s own publication uses government commissioned polls regularly, and they even commission their own. It wouldn’t be in that young man’s interests to expose the uselessness of polling as a mechanism for taking the nation’s temperature.
I am speaking for the silent majority we the people say anough is anough
But we can’t stay silent much longer I fear.
your amazing Neil,you put it so well.
Well done Neil 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Excellent - thank you Neil and Steven
"arguing until they're blue in the face" made me chuckle (visions of Mel Gibson crying "FREEDOM!!!"), great stuff from Neil as always
I didn't think I could love Neil Oliver any more ...... great interview
Steven Edginton is excellent as usual - concise, responsive, listens and lets the guest answer. We all get to hear them speak their minds, and it takes great skill to bring that out.
“Add & not subtract from history.” how very correct he is.
Pulling down statues in my opinion doesn’t change history. If anything, I think they should be left standing as a reminder not to let history repeat itself!
Sweden never locked down and had far less casualties than us!
I actually think this is the the best interview I’ve seen on YT. 👏🇬🇧
Definitely a five star interview.
You clearly haven't been watching for very long. It's good, but, really?
@@robertdore9592 yes really because it’s honest and informed.
Also brave no pandering to a particular audience, which even my YT hero’s are prone to do.
Best interviewer interviewing the nicest guy on the planet ...from a fellow Scot!!
This guy is just the greatest ever , I’ll walk beside you anywhere Neil, I’m British and very proud of it, we must look forward and never look back to what our past masters did, Right or wrong , what’s been said and done is over, We HAVE to look ahead if only for the sake of our children and their children’s children,,,,
Love this mans Histrocial docs, They have me captivated! He explains things beautifully too
I wholeheartedly agree with Neil about Scottish independence,as a Highlander,I have always been proud to call myself British while travelling the world,and also as a Scot- I see no contradiction there at all,much as a New Yorker would also be proud to be an American. What does grate on me however,is when foreigners refer to England,or even London as being Britain,while ignoring the fact we are a United Kingdom of four Nations,who have all contributed richly to our shared identity.. I even hear English folk doing this,which is pretty sad. United we stand,divided we fall,and never have so many seeds of division been sown between us all ,as in the present times.
Need you more than ever Neil to keep the communication channels open, a voice for free speech, power to you Neil and credit to The Sun for supporting this free speech (never thought i would be praising The Sun ! 😳)
One very articulate speaker is Mr Neil Oliver. His knowledge and insight is always a pleasure to listen to... Scots really need to pay attention to this man.
I do but the problem is that there is so many brainwashed eejits up here that they are trying to stifle the talking points that neil raises just for( muh independence)and they don't realise the importance of anything else,ie shocking results in education, NHS, economy,and the way sturgeon is running us into the ground,but all they think about is the way sturgeon is on the tele telling us how to act during lockdown and when we get out of it,but even the new hate crime bill is now up and running it is making people scared to talk,,
sorry for long answer, hope it helps,
@@gazzthered5659 I’m a Scot living in England.. I’m astonished at how compliant the majority of Scots are with EVERYTHING (Not to mention the ‘V’ word) Scotland the brave no more! And the hate crime bill- my friends of 35+ years are now ‘offended’ by what I say- what the hell is that all about? Practically nobody up there knows what is going on outside Scotland. A small population is easy to manipulate and control... It saddens me deeply.
eejit- made me laugh! Not heard that for a long time.
I always enjoy watching Steven Edginton interview people. He raises interesting points an gives the interviewee an opportunity to explain their views.
Really enjoyed listening and feel growing confidence that there are people out there who are logical and can express themselves clearly, because oh boy, don't we need it.
I could listen to that fella all day!
Wow, what a fantastic interview - this guy, Neil Oliver, is brilliant and calm and has sooooo much common sense. I love the Scottish Accent - I've just finished watching the 5th season of Outlander and I'm fascinated by the Scottish Highland Culture and the entire U.K. Thanks for sharing you wisdom!
🙂🙏
Neil Oliver is a very intelligent man and beacon of hope in these dark times!!
A Great and sensible Scotsman. 🇬🇧
Great to see Neil Oliver, he always talks sense.
FANTASTIC, NEIl! An awesome and a very cogent rational interview! Sharing the hell out of this!
So good to hear another voice saying what I have been thinking every time I hear about these "polls" that say people all support our rights being taken away. I also talk with folks when taking the dog to the park etc and I don't hear anyone saying that they still support lockdowns. Anger and grief for the victims of lockdowns is rising everywhere here.
Brilliant, enlightening and speaking from the heart, just what is needed right now.. Thanks Neil.👍👍
Neil Oliver just gets better. Really Really smart bloke and stupidly reasonable. The best I've heard in my life. We need people like him!
Brilliant and lucid description of the study of history.
England is not represented by parliment, we need an English parliment
I hated history in school.. Boring.... I'm 72.....I can't get enough of Neil. So enthusiastic. So real. History made ALIVE and REAL. .thank you🍀
Obliterate history...I think not. I’ve watched a lot of Neil Oliver. I love history, it says so much about who we are now.
It should be pointed out that the Scots were enthusiastic participants in the British Imperial Project not because they saw anything intrinsically meritorious about it but because it offered them employment. Scots were the officers and administrators of empire. One should never forget that Scotland only joined the Union because most of its wealthy and noble people were bankrupted by the Panama Scandal. They faced destitution otherwise. What were they to do but join the Union? Scottish kings had ruled England only recently so it was not too painful a process!
Well done Neil we are all stronger together even Southern Ireland it’s like family’s we all fight but when something happens the family all pull together I was born in England my mother is welsh and my dad is Irish so I am British like you Neil I think the SNP and IRA stand for separation and I am against any of it
Wtf! The republic of Ireland has no link to the UK now apart from the northern counties still under British rule. Not sure what you're trying to say about the IRA today as that is not around as a freedom fighting army since the republic was formed. Do you live in the United kingdom? Britishness is an national identity, nationalism personified whereas ethnicity as bf culture is varied and in many ways separate with the United kingdom of Britain. Many Scots like the Irish feel a sense of cultural and ethical uniqueness and that gives way to a desire for autonomy. Wanting to belong to Europe is a separate matter.
You identify as British but if you're father is from the republic then ethnically you can identify as Irish as being Irish today means to be apart from the remnants of Empire.
Spot on brother!👏👏
You are a amazing Scottish intellectual. Tons and tons of love from Oz!!
Wow! Did not expect this kind of erudite discussion from the Sun.
Always loved your programmes Neil, & great to see you stick your head above the parapet with some intelligent & nuanced points.
