‘We run little s**ts like you out of Limerick on a regular basis. Don’t even try it’
The kickboxer and controversial influencer received a less than warm welcome as he revealed he is “tempted to move to Ireland”.
In a post shared on X, Tate declared: “My grandfather was from Limerick. My mother half English half Irish. Making me one quarter Irish.
“When this bullsh*t in Romania is over I’m tempted to move to Ireland and fund/raise awareness for all these brave people saving their nation from being invaded,” he added.
Tate is awaiting trial in Romania where he has been charged with human trafficking and rape.
In response to his post some people suggested he come to Ireland to explore his background while others were a bit more forthright in their replies.
“You can take that one quarter and shove it up your hole. We don’t want you,” one unambiguous response reads.
One local warned: “We run little s**ts like you out of Limerick on a regular basis. Don’t even try it.”
Another simply said: “We’re grand, lad. Stay put.”
Andrew and Tristan in action
Another offered a fake apology by saying, “sorry, petal but no. Níl. Sorry about that but we’ve reached our Dose Quota here.
“It’s a shame, I know but lookit, maybe England can squeeze ya in. All the best, now.”
“You stay wherever you are lad. Ireland doesn’t need you,” stated another.
Earlier this month Andrew and his brother Tristan claimed they would move to Ireland if Conor McGregor is elected as President.
The brothers, who are both currently facing sex trafficking charges in Romania, posted a clip posted on X vowing to help the Crumlin fighter run for election.
Tristan describes the Dubliner as “strong” and claims he needs to become a leader of Ireland.
“We said this about the leader of Ireland,” Tristan states.
“We said, Conor Gregor needs to become the President of Ireland. Does he know politics? Is he a skilled politician? No.”
A bare-chested Andrew who is facing rape charges in Romania alongside his brother, interrupts: “He loves the people of Ireland”
Tristan adds: “He loves the Irish people. He’s born and bred Irish.
“His great, great, great, grandfather was part of the Irish struggle. He’s Irish to the core and he is strong. So I would vote for him, as an Irishman, make no mistake, I have an Irish passport.”
He the directly addresses McGregor: “Conor, if you’re listening, I will help you in your campaign I will promote you I will vote for you myself.”
Tristan then adds: “F**k it. If Connor McGregor becomes Irish president I’m moving to Ireland. At least part-time. Buying an old castle and going hunting every day.”
Andrew Tate then replies, “I’m in,” indicating his agreement with Tristan’s statement.
That same week, a court in Romania said the trial of the controversial influencer and his brother Tristan is to go ahead.
No date has been set by the court which has been reviewing prosecutors’ evidence and the pair have appealed.
Andrew Tate, 37, and Tristan, 35, were arrested last December over allegations of rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang – charges they deny.
The internet personalities are also wanted in the UK over sexual offences allegedly committed there.
The Tate brothers, who are dual UK-US nationals, are accused of exploiting women via an adult content business, which prosecutors allege operated as a criminal group.
Two female Romanian associates were also named alongside the brothers in an indictment published in June last year, and seven alleged victims were identified.
Andrew Tate is a self-described misogynist and was previously banned from social media platforms for expressing misogynistic views.
He has repeatedly claimed Romanian prosecutors have no evidence against him and there is a conspiracy to silence him.
The case had been discussed for months in a process before a preliminary chamber where the accused could challenge the evidence of the prosecutors.
A court in Bucharest said the case met the legal criteria and would proceed.
The brothers’ lead counsel, Eugen Vidineac, said the ruling “lacks legal basis and reasoning”.
“We have filed a strong appeal as we believe the ruling to be unlawful.”
