>>In the case of Ireland i guess you meant General EU.
LOL- Generalissimo EU certainly has been a fine fellow for Ireland! Though in 2019 it appears that Perfidious Albion may not be so sure.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
