It's not his fault, some people are genuinely unaware that Ireland is two countries:
Northern Ireland - which apart of the United Kingdom - and the Republic of Ireland which is not.

England (London, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle)
Scotland (Edinburgh, Glasgow)
Wales (Cardiff)
Northern Ireland (Belfast)
Republic of Ireland (Dublin) |
England, Scotland and Wales form Great Britain.
England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland form the UK.
Really? Dublin in the UK?
