Why do protestant unionists in northern ireland insist they are "anglo saxon lowland scots" and not celtic irishmen?

    So I have no irish ancestry because my family line were planters?

    Kind of lame you are being bigoted like the orangemen are

        be real, a massive portion of Irish folk have mixed ancestry with the Protestants. I suppose you're gonna kick them all out of the 32 county socialist Republic? obsessing over the "ethnic" distinction this much is honestly kinda hitler-detector . all that matters in this day and age is are you a unionist or a republican.
