Fair play to him. A Guard trying to do his job right and prevent passport fraud.

It’s very telling that the two biggest West Brits on here struggle to get an Irish passport

I did pal. Did you ever try flying to London without ID
Carter: Hi Gorda, any chance you could sign this form which would allow me obtain documents I could use to take the children in these photos out of Ireland forever, and no I can’t prove I have any connection to them whatsoever.
Gord: What? No
Carter: …am is Superintendent McGrath around, I know him well from the rugby club, old buddy of mine, he’d vouch for me!
Gord: Who?
Carter: Fine ok, I’ll come all the way back some other time, I hope you realise I’m very busy and this is causing me huge hassle
Gord: What do you work at?
Carter: Yeah whatever lets go Miriam…I used to pay your wages

An amusing little monologue however it’s founded on the false premise I was criticising the guards actions when I did nothing of the sort.
If you hadn’t been hunted out of this country you would also know us doleys are entitled to a far better service from the guards and the hospitals and the government than anyone else

bro?
That’s an airline requirement.
Yes thought he made a ridiculous suggestion of getting the kids out of bed at 9.30 pm but throw up there where I suggested he was wrong not to sign the form?
You’ve no kids mate?
A Garda who’d ask you to take your 1 and 3 year old out of bed is clearly a clueless idiot, not representative of the force as a whole but still an idiot.

You are also subject to random checks on the ferry. Moreso travelling from Ireland to Britain. I have seen the driver being asked for ID a few times when iv been a passenger.
You were implying it with your emojis.
An idiot no doubt, but still doing the right thing in this case
