      Sure isn’t it right beside New Britain, like that was a dynamic that needed repeating

      An island that already had a name before Europeans got involved by the way.

      I visited the island some years ago and saw several fellas in Namatanai and Kavieng wearing Ireland jerseys, both football and rugby.

      I can remember them discussing New Ireland on The Panel years ago. They spent a good 5 minutes riffing on how we would invade it.

      What a show that was tbf. Might not have held up against some of the panel shows in England at the time but for RTE it was brilliant.

      Let’s check if they have housing crisis there, maybe they fixed it with new update
