The text of the thank you card allegedly sent from Ireland to the President of the EC
"Dear Mr Juncker,
I will be honest. I never really understood the importance of the EU. It was something we learned about in school, a part of history, more than a part of today..."
"But your 5 words, ‘Ireland’s borders are Europe’s borders’ made me want to jump for joy, punch my hands into the air, and kiss you."
"For the 1st time ever Ireland is stronger than Britain. That strength comes not not from guns or bombs. It comes from your words and that of you colleagues."
"punch my hands into the air" doesn't sound a particularly Irish turn of phrase IMO
Of course, it could have been written by someone in Ireland who is not a native English speaker...
I wouldn't mind seeing the postmark on the envelope too. Just out of curiousity...
