Irish people break into song at White House as officials try to get them to leave

Attendees at the White House’s St Patrick’s Day celebrations on March 15 broke into song with a rendition of Ireland’s Call.

Following Taoiseach Enda Kenny’s meeting with US President Barack Obama, others, including Henry Healy, a distant cousin of Obama, captured a group singing the song.

At one point, a White House official appeared to attempt to get the Irish to leave, but they sang on.
