This afternoon.
At the National Concert Hall in Dublin.
Some 480 people from 68 countries are taking part in a Citizenship Ceremony.
They include Lina Chen from Hong Kong (top pic), Sylwia Zablotna from Poland (second pic), Joanna Dukkipati, from India, and her two-year-old son Ethan Dukkipati McCarthy (third and fourth pic), and Daniel Lopez with his three-year-old daughter Megan, from Spain (fifth pic).
Welcome.

Only if we can start with you.

I’m not racist.
It’s interesting the amount of Polish people I know who have gone for Irish citizenship. Many (that I know at least) have deep issues with Poland the direction its going and feel there is a, admittedly remote, possibility that Poland could leave the EU.
Not only that though, but I know at least 3 who have already taken up the study of Irish and are better than me!
You have to admire that. So welcome to all the newcomers!
