Nationality[edit]

I edited this article to add McGrady's UK nationality, but now an Irish nationalist editor has censored mention of this. This is extremely petty. Why the need to censor facts about which editors are uncomfortable. McGrady is a UK citizen and the article should say so, unless there is evidence to demonstrate that he has revoked it.

Eddie was entitled to Irish citizenship by birthright. You have not proved that his nationality was British. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.61.117.50 (talk) 22:25, 11 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

East Down Candidacy?[edit]

I know that on the link to election demon^[1] that an opponent to Brain Faulkner in East Down back in 1969 was a one "E.K.McGrady", suggesting the man we know as Eddie McGrady. However the same site shows a candidate for the Nationalist party, also "E.K.McGrady" in 1949. At this stage Eddie would have been 14.

Can anyone shed any light on this? There are, in my view, several possibilities:

→Electiondemon is wrong regarding the candidate in 1949 →The two candidates are the same, and the 2nd was not Eddie McGrady →The two candidates are different people (probably related if they share the same intials)

Any thoughts? Conquistador17 (talk) 00:27, 4 April 2010 (UTC) Both individuals were E.K McGrady. The former standing in 1949 was his uncle — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.15.83.127 (talk) 21:01, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
