About to get hammered by the English?

A Wetherspoon’s pub has opened in Dublin as the Brits attempt to take us on at what we do best.

WHEN it was announced that the English chain Wetherspoon’s were to open a pub on our hallowed turf, there were raised eyebrows. Some people said they heard the creaking of funeral casks in Glasnevin Cemetery, as the spirits of Irish rebel leaders turned in their graves.

“They can come here and take our high streets, with their H&Ms and their M&Ss,” went the refrain. “They can take our handsome men and put them in their boy bands. But never, never shall their pubs invade our nation.”
