So Westlife is still around, huh? It seems that they decided to lay low for a while rather than go mainstream...

I dnt really get ur problem with the whole snowpatrol thing HM? Since they are called the meteor 'Ireland' music awards and not the meteor 'Republic of Ireland' music awards, the awards obviously include northern Ireland since Ireland is the island as a whole? similar to how the Brits are not solely England/Wales etc but all countries in Britain? and since 3 members of snowpatrol are from Northern Ireland then I dnt see why they wouldn't be included in the category.

"before they go off" was a reference to the hilarious spud famine thing you lot are always whining on about, in case you missed it. (Please feel free to pick up your Guinness-fuelled rant where you left off.)

That's handy - a handbag advert - grab one and meet you in the bog at dawn for a fight, fight, fight.

And coming tomorrow on Holy Moly: Israel: What's that all about?

That's all very well but it's geneAlogy.

Shut up and eat your potatoes before they go off.

Dear Mr HM

The Irish national anthem is actually played at all home Irish rugby games in the 6N.

Its a 32 county team, so they play a pop ditty in addition to the Irish national anthem, at home games. At away games, its only the ditty.

I don't see the linkage of the anthems to the passports however. People in England, Scotland, Wales & wherever else are entitled to an Irish passport if they can trace their geneology back to Ireland.

The reasons why people in N.I. have been given special entitlement (if required) to Irish passports lie in the long & complex history of the last 800 years. But the grant of this entitlement is today not unilateral by the Republic, but rather agreed with the UK : the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 provided for the recognition of “the birthright of all the people of Northern Ireland to identify themselves and be accepted as Irish or British or both, as they may so choose”, and that “their right to hold both British and Irish citizenship is accepted by both Governments".

Oi! U2 are half English but we micks keep being blamed for them too, how does that work out?

also, why did she turn up in a dressing gown? lazy cow. quality chin though

It's completely one way traffic though.

People from the 26 counties in the South are not entitled to an British passport. Just like people in England, Scotland and Wales are not entitled to an Irish passport. Only people in the six counties of Northern Ireland are entitled to both.

It's also the reason why the Irish National Anthem is not played before Irish rugby games in the 6 Nations. It's a 32 county team, so they play a specially written pop ditty.

You can claim and keep Michelle Heaton and the worryingly butch redhead for the emerald isle for nothing but our undying gratitude if you want?

So the fact that they were formed in Ireland and the other members of the group are Irish counts for nothing... Great logic there. As for your quip about Lady GaGa, seriously HM, if you need to stoop to sucj stupid and childish posts, there is no help for you.

Funny how it swings differently when we claim something as Irish.. The British Independent Film Awards had no problem giving Best British actor to Michael Fassbender... a card carrying Irishman from Kerry.

yes they should be discounted, because they are not Irish. Why not let Lady Gaga win it?

What a load of cheap old shit. Michelle Heaton is probably on the same level of laugh-ability as her fellow deluded friend Katie Price/Reid. Oooh, doesn't it look like a glittering array of shite!

The suspiciously elderly and mannish-looking Florence looks like she might be hiding a piece of machinery that GaGa would be proud of.

Erm, hate to piss on your chips Holy Moly, the Meteor Irish Music Awards take in to account both the Republic and Northern Ireland.

As 2 members of Snow Patrol are indeed from Northern Ireland, they are eligible for the awards. Likewise, Brian Kennedy was born in Belfast. As it happens, both singers with Amasis hail from New York, but live in Ireland. Should they be discounted?

Thats a small minded and petty article you wrote there HM, small minded and petty.

Christy Moore eh?

That 'Fields of Athenry' rocks like a motherfucker.

PS Michelle Heaton looks a bit of a tranny in pic 1 - either that or Janet Street-Porter (one and the same thing come to think of it)

they should call it 'the micks'
