the Celtic Isles
Worth a boycott just for the ignorance alone
WTF is that in the bottom right corner?
Isn’t the tern British Isles a correct geographical term for U.K. & Republic of Ireland? I don’t agree with it btw.
It might make sense if the tour included the Isle of Man. Doesn’t look like it does though.

Eamonn never agreed to this!
Sounds like a Bond lady villans name.
I feel sorry for people who care about this kind of thing
The Northwest European Archipelago.
What’s wrong with British isles, it’s accurate.
That’s one concert I won’t be going to anyway, if she can’t respect the Irish
I saw this earlier and it made my skin prickle. Especially with three Irish dates.
The Irish sea tour would be nice
The mid Atlantic archipelago?
Edit: she’s taking it down and reuploading a better one tomorrow! She’s very gracious about it, please be kind.
I just DMed her on Instagram and kindly pointed it out, maybe if a few people did it in a gentle way and not hateful she might change it.
Holly doesn’t plan on selling many tickets in Ireland and probably will never be able to figure out why on her own.
They can all fuck right off.
“British Isles” reeks of colonialism.
I’m from Scotland and I don’t use it.
“these two islands” or “these islands” works fine.
The singer must be English or American ?
No comments allowed on that post either…
Going to delete this now anyway as I’m sure she’s aware of it. Last thing I’d want is a bunch of people messaging her angrily or something
ireland is part of the british isles its a geographical term
Christ, she should be cancelled for that
British Isles is a *geographical* term, and not a *political* one. And *British* means *Celtic* anyway. So, maybe we could be slightly less precious? ***I doubt she’s arriving with an army of Norman soldiers at the behest of the deposed King of Leinster.***
The Ukrainians would prefer if you didn’t say “THE Ukraine” or “Kiev”: No problem.
The Irish would prefer if you didn’t say “British Isles”: Nope…
