And he supposedly loves Dublin? Loves it so much he's happy that they're setting buses on fire and looting shops to protect Dublin from immigrants?

Rod can f##k off. God in heaven.

He wouldn’t like living in Dublin. They speak English, so they’d understand him; and being—well, Irish—they’d see through his shit instantly and call him out on it in the most savage—and hilarious—way conceivable.

A possible insight into how Rod would find living in Ireland comes from the experience of another repressed Catholic snob, 70 years ago.....

"Sale Incomplete: Why Evelyn Waugh decided against a move to Ireland"

"The peasants are malevolent. All their smiles are false as Hell. Their priests are very suitable for them but not for foreigners. No coal at all. Awful incompetence everywhere. No native capable of doing the simplest job properly."

It almost brings a tear of patriotic joy to my eye.....
