We can’t be that pissed off though…

All across the world, news outlets have turned their eye to Ireland this weekend to cover our celebrations and commemorations of one the most crucial moments in our journey towards independence.

With all of that media focus on the commemorative events taking place this weekend, there was bound to be at least one broadcast with an unfortunate slip of the tongue.

Here’s Nuala McGovern of BBC, really taking the piss.

Gathered to take part in this piss? Don’t tell us that isn’t funny.
