Partial extract from publicly available piece:
One hundred years ago, a small group of newly elected MPs met at the Mansion House in Dublin to declare Irish independence. Curiously, the passion that existed in Ireland back then for the inalienable right of nations to self-determination finds no contemporary echo when it comes to understanding the impulses that led to Brexit.
On the contrary, the Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, may have used the recent centenary of that First Dail to laud the aspiration to a “free, independent and democratic state”, but he shamelessly did so while asserting that it now finds its fullest expression in, and is best achieved through, membership of the EU. It’s a telling indication of where the Irish public mood stands...
The rest of the article is very clear about how the public in general feel and go along with Varadkar's perfidious behaviour, which will be to the detriment of their exports.

You seem to have difficulty discerning the difference between liberation from an occupying country who had stolen the land from the natives and then suppressed their rights because of their religion (Irish Independence from Britain) and being part of a larger economic group of countries which support each other.
