Hibernophobia

Hibernophobia a.k.a anti-Irish sentiment, may refer to or include persecution, discrimination, hatred or fear of the Irish as an ethnic or national group, whether directed against Ireland in general or against Irish immigrants and their descendants in the Irish diaspora.

In the past the Irish have been unfairly stereotyped as "thick Paddies", "alcoholics", "terrorists", etc, and whilst some Irish people may have looked upon this as a bit of banter, others object, viewing it as a form of racism.
Person 1: I am going on holiday to Ireland next week
Person 2: OMG don't go, Ireland is a dangerous place full of terrorists and gypsies.
Person 1: Seriously?... You are such a Hibernophobe, Ireland is a beautiful country.
Person 2: WTF is Hibernophobia... <== (this is the reason it needs to be added to UD)

Brew Tout

This term is found mostly in Northern Ireland.
In Northern Ireland, if you are claiming benefits (welfare) you are 'On the brew".
Some people claim benefits despite being completely able bodied and 'fit for work', but rely on 'sick lines' from their GP so they don't have to work.

A tout comes under various synonyms such as snitch, rat, nark, informant, grass, whistle-blower.

If you know of someone that does this, you can call up your local job centre and tell them who it is and what they're doing. This will put that person under investigation. Doing this makes you a brew tout. If people find out that you are a brew tout you will be targeted by paramilitaries or anyone associated with the person you touted on and beaten severely including a possible kneecapping.
Billy : Here mate, how do you afford all this gear if you ain't working?
James : On the brew mate, don't have to work and the money still rolls in, mint mate.
Billy : So what's wrong with ye? You disabled or sick or something?
James : Na bud just can't be bothered like, can't prove it so what's the problem?
Billy : Ahh shit well fair play to ye lad, here I gotta jump, see ye around mate.
*Billy reports James to Benefits agency or Job Centre*
*James goes under investigation and loses his benefits*

All fingers point to Billy as the suspect, people start calling him a Brew Tout.

Billy's house is visited by the 'boys', his windows are smashed along with his knees.

All Touts Are Targets (ATAT) is sprayed across his garden fence.
