In the sense that you are part of the Irish race. Scotland was settled by the people of Ireland and the two communities are closely related as it is. I am Irish and I certainly think of you as one of us. We need to support anyone who respects the Republic and honors the Irish people.

Oh, I wouldn't drop the Scottish part! They have a reputation as some of the toughest, strongest people on earth!
The Scots held out against England, even when England had guns and all kinds of weopons, but the Scots had only bows and arrows. I'm proud to be a good part Scottish.
Check out Rob Roy, to get the whole story.
But you can consider yourself, Celtic, that is for sure!

extremely, lately, you'd be dealt with no more effective or worse no matter if you're Irish or British. There are some advantages to having Irish citizenship - ie you may keep on with for a eco-friendly card contained in the U. S. eco-friendly card lottery, yet both, there are advantages to having uk citizenship - more convenient shuttle/visa get good of entry to interior of Commonwealth international places. on the different hand, the united kingdom has lost a number of its goodwill around the international because of its involvement contained in the Iraq warfare. and some people purely have a adverse attitude in route of the Irish, thinking them to be terrorists or drunks or feckless. in case you do not extremely experience a pull in route of one id or the different, the finest ingredient of do might want to be to flow with both. a good number of people attempt this (the veteran reporter John Simpson has twin citizenship and feels the Irish consular facilities are more effective, yet this may be because he's been in difficulty in warfare zones such a good number of cases that the British consulates have given up assisting him). evaluate your self inspite of you want to be - that is conceivable to be both Irish and a uk citizen (or concern), purely because that is conceivable to be Scottish or Welsh or English and a uk citizen. i imagine that is outstanding that issues have developed a lot in Northern eire that you do not immediately away experience dragged into one camp. twenty years in the past, a question like yours might want to by no potential were imagined.

Scots-Irish are not actually from the island of Ireland. They are descended from Celtics who immgrated from Ireland to Scotland many hundreds of years ago.
However, you can "consider" yourself whoever you want to be.
If that means you want to celebrate Irish culture, go for it!

No, you're part Irish and part Scottish. I think it would only be acceptable if you were more than half Irish.

Duh... yeah... half is close enough. But if you profess to be Irish (I am like 90% Irish and 10 Scottish)... do NOT wear green on March 17th... that is for people who WISH they were Irish! :D
