Donncha Kavanagh writes,
>> For instance, Bob
Geldof, on the occasion of his honourary knighthood, was referred to as a
"True Brit" by, I think, either the Queen or Mrs. Thatcher. The double
irony is that he's Irish!<<
What's even more Ironic is that the coinage "True Brit" may well be a take-off
on "True Grit" an American Western starring John Wayne.
