    If they are living there, Irish citizens can vote in the UK.

    Yes. I voted in the general election last May.

    We sat again for an hour and a half discussing maps and figures and always getting back to that most damnable creation of the perverted ingenuity of man - the County of Tyrone.

    OP, given that you have the answer that you wanted and that there is no real scope for discussion here I am going to close this thread.

    Here is a link to the electoral commission's website detailing who can vote:
