As somebody who is entitled to hold both Irish and U.K. passports I’ve examined this subject closely and I see no good reason to hold a U.K. passport. The Irish one is vastly more useful and powerful. And that is completely irrespective of where I was born, raised, worked, lived and presently reside whether within the U.K. or Ireland. Fact is that Brexit has completely trashed the reputation and usefulness of the once proud U.K. Passport. A close family member has both passports and hey, that’s fine, but it’s the Irish one that comes out constantly while the U.K. one stays in the drawer. As for me, well I might get a U.K. passport as some stage, just to have it for the sake of it or then again, I might put my money towards a nice dinner out with some nice wine… H’mmmm.

Yes sort of... In 1984 the Irish people voted by a majority of 75% to accept the 9th amendment to the constitution allowing the Dail, the parliament, to grant voting rights to non citizens in the case of national and local elections, but not for presidential elections or constitutional referenda. This was required because like Switzerland, Ireland has a sovereign people, meaning that certain powers are reserved to the people and the parliament is subject to the people in these matters. So for example the Irish government can only negotiate EU treaty changes, ratification is reserved to the people via a referendum.

The Common Travel Area between Britain and Ireland is just over 100 years old. It predates by several decades the arrangements in the Nordic Passport Union (1950s), and the less formal Australia/ New Zealand 'Trans Tasman Travel Arrangement'(1970s). So, it has stood the test of time, making life easier for people from both jurisdictions, and that's one of the main reasons why Brexit had and will have no real effect on it.

Mm remember the "Common Travel Area" (CTA) applies not only to the UK and Ireland but also to the Isle of Man (IOM) and to Guernsey (G) and to Jersey (J). And IOM, G and J passports are slightly different, in wording, to UK ones. And thus passport holders of any of these 5 countries can travel, with little difficulty, to any of the other 4. It is a kind of mini-Schengen, in a way. Tho one should always carry some photo ID if travelling between them. Re living and working, full reciprocation applies between UK and Ireland, tho there are some work restrictions in IOM, G, and J (for non nationals of those islands).

Quick Information firstly I am from Northern Ireland so fortunately I have both passport. I am considering a few confusing and conflicting questions and maybe I will get some answers or an insight. An Irish passport is inclusive to people who live in the North or South as what we refer to as Island of Ireland. Contrary to a British passport holders the passport covers United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland…. Is Northern Ireland an after thought? Why our we separated? A British passport is for those who are British, a descendant etc. Would a simpler term to use The United Kingdom not to differentiate between the 4 countries Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and England? Who are meant to be one United Kingdom… Another confusing example is how Great Britain and the United Kingdom are classified. Great Britain is Scotland, Wales and England and the United Kingdom includes Northern Ireland. One more confusing point is nationality on the new blue/black passport remains the same The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Although this time in bold lettering says British Passport. There is a few technicalities here to I live in a Country that is neither Great Britain and Republic of Ireland am I British, Irish or could it be Northern Irish (This is not recognised as formal nationality) It would be cool to hear other opinions or corrections are welcomed too…

Until the Act of Union 1801, Ireland was a separate kingdom in personal possession of the king or queen. After the act of Union, it was bound to Great Britain fully under British law. The king or queen had no legitimate claim on Ireland. They did not inherit the title and had not married into an Irish royal family. They merely claimed it and then spent centuries sending armies to subdue it. Great Britain formed in 1707 when the Act of Union with Scotland passed. Prior to that Scotland had been independent despite sharing a monarch with England. When the Act of Union 1801 passed, “Great Britain” became the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland” or just the “United Kingdom” for short. When Ireland became independent apart from Northern Ireland, it became the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. The nationality of someone from the UK is “British” even if they are not from Great Britain. There was never a term like United Kingdomish that encompassed Northern Ireland.

@@CuteWhoor If the requirement is another photo ID and you don’t send it, then yes, it is an error in application. There is a list of other forms of photo ID that can be used. If you are becoming an Irish citizen from abroad it’s hardly too much to ask that someone provide a photo ID. The number of British people alone applying for Irish passports had risen by 1200% since brexit and ensuring the system isn’t being abused when you are granting citizenship should be paramount. The Irish state shouldn’t be dishing out passports unless they can verify people have a right to them. 30/40/50 years ago and Irish passport wasn’t in demand. But today, people are applying merely to skip queues in the airport. If someone can’t be bothered getting a photo ID to gain Irish citizenship they can do without Irish citizenship in my opinion. It’s not up to the Irish state to make it convenient.
