More Britons than ever are securing a second passport – these are most powerful

The number of Britons holding an Irish passport has risen sixfold in the last decade, according to Office for National Statistics (ONS) data. Analysts have suggested that the increase is, in part, due to a post-Brexit rush for European benefits. There are now almost 160,000 citizens living in England and Wales who also have dual Irish nationality, compared to 26,000 in 2011.
