It was probably a sort of solidarity thing - English protestants identifying with Irish protestants. Which I can approve - my ancestors were English protestants and Irish protestants and Scottish protestants alike. It just makes me wish people would stop fighting over religion, not just in Northern Ireland but anywhere they might be doing it. Instead of wearing green everyone should wear green-orange braids or something.
