No Ireland is part of Britain
My great ancestors are known as Celtiberians, Celtic tribes that inhabited the Iberian peninsula were modern day Spain and Portugal are.
Before the Roman empire ruled Europe around 500BC there were three major civilizations that inhabited it.
In the south east were the Greeks. The north east were the Goths. But the rest of Europe were inhabited by the Celts. It was their golden era

So you see, the Celtic blood line isn't restricted to the Irish despite it being their origin. They spread their seed throughout Europe to as far as modern day Turkey. The land to the south was Greek and the lands in the north east were Gothic.
I hope you found that as interesting as I did. I love history
Well, I'm not as big of a history buff but I did find that interesting as I already knew that Ireland was connected to Europe but not Britain and very interesting that the Irish originated from Spain and Portugal. Anyways, can I offer you any virtual refreshments? :wink
