And try quoting sources other than the Fake News Factory (BBC) or the Grauniad anti-Brexit and anti-working class propaganda mills. Oh, and Morrissey is a staunch supporter of Brexit, which is totally in line with the sentiment of this lyric so you are mistaken that he wouldn't write it now. Don't try and speak for him from a position of Remainer ignorance.

      My parents arrived here from Cuba, in 1967 from a communist country. I am 25% Irish/British from my mom's maternal grandpas side.. My mom stated that her grandpa was a curly, red haired, blue eyed very tall man. (Irish looks alright) Many people immigrated, and settled in Cuba from Europe. The island had a large population of Irish, and Asian immigrants looking for contract work. There are many streets with Irish last names, and even the light house was named after an Irish general...Also Cuba was a British colony for a few years, before it was sold to Spain...😠 Many worked the railroads like here in the United States, and then settled in Cuba....This song states actual facts for me, but my version is a bit edited. "Irish blood, Cuban heart."
      Oh, yeah. In case you are wondering, my last name is not my husband's, not mines. This is a name I made up for these post. Lol!

    Great song. I'm English with a half Irish Catholic mum and an English dad from a recusant Catholic family.
    Its interesting to have grown up seeing both cultures my fathers English relatives and the Irish ones on my mothers side. Also the predominance of Irish kids at my Catholic grammar school. The differences in behaviour, beliefs is fascinating.
    As much as i like the Irish I know I have an English heart.

    This song just came on the radio - I'm in Los Angeles - and of course, yesterday I saw our President Trump and the Queen talking together - their hands touching - BIG SMILE on the Queen's face - when she mentioned the Pres.'s Scottish Heritage - his mother is from the Hebredes - she really BEAMED cos Scotland is her real HOME. They are CELEBRATING D-DAY for Chrissake! There was something so moving about that. I'm 76 - and I REMEMBER WW2
    - I was just a kid - but I remember it so well because I lived with my grandmother while my parents went off to the war. It did something to me - but I've never FELT any ANIMOSITY from my English self towards my IRISH self. They are both ME - and I'm RICHER because of it. Every time I THINK about what it actually MEANS, I'm overcome with emotion - then I HEAR JOHN LENNON - singing 'COME TOGETHER" - Ye Gods!

      You miss some of the meaning of the lyrics ...by the sound of it. He is alluding to the current Royal line being bought and paid for by zionist bankers via Oiliver Cromwell being bribed to accept the Jewish community back into England... and that they have held the English (and others ) to ransom ever since.

    This was the first Morrissey song I heard because it was on some webpage my friend and I used for listening to music in the early 2000's, I was 14 then and it completely changed my music taste forever. I went from Good Charlotte and Simple Plan to The Smiths and Joy Division, Thanks Moz. ;)

      Drogheda was just a lost siege. That shit happens in war.
      What Cromwell did that was unforgivable was he'd destroyed the institutions in Ireland that made life worth living. Under Cromwell's tyranny, the Irish starved or left or simply lost hope. The population of the island crashed.
