How can we restore national pride?

    We are royally screwed as a nation, and have lost our pride and dignity. Everyone knows that the best way to restore them is to win a war, so should Ireland declare war on Iceland or someone like that to restore our dignity and standing on the world stage? Imagine the boost to tourism there'd be from Enda Kenny taking the salute of the victorious soldiers as they parade through Reykjavik after conquering Iceland.

    National Socialism.

    If only to scare the Germans.

    Play brinkmanship with fascism. Give us what we want, or we vote blueshirt.... wait a minute.

    If all the Irish women lied and said all Irish men has massive penises then we might be able to get the eastern European women back and it would boost tourism too.

    Declare war on a weaker country and kick their ass.

    Or bribe UEFA to let Celtic win the Champions League.

    Scottish team win Champions League to restore national pride? Might restore some revenue to a few sh!thole pubs full of skangers but will do nothing for Ireland!

    War with Iceland is definitely the way to go. We could mount an operation to replace our 'r' with their 'c'. The IMF will send the bills to the wrong country then.

    Win the upcoming Rugby world cup.

    Claim those NI golfers as our own.

    Iceland would probably beat us in a war, we have no real air units worth mentioning, no proper tanks, we have about 12,000 ground troops with no way of transport unless we book a flight with ryan air. It wouldnt end well.

    We have a large fishing fleet that could be commandeered by the Navy, and the government jet for aerial insertions.

    Well we'll obviously be starting the war with Iceland while hiding behind Britain. We just have to get our story straight first. Remember 'they started it'.

    Bring back michael flatley, riverdance and hot chicks jigging around showing leg. That was one hell of a good production that put ireland on the world stage. Please note: I am not a lesbian when I speak of hot chicks.
