This British magazine issued a really sound apology for claiming Ireland was part of the UK
IT MIGHT BE 2016, but it seems that some people still can’t grasp that the Republic of Ireland isn’t part of the UK.

Yesterday, the music magazine published an article asking how a proposed Brexit would affect UK ravers. (Er, niche take, guys.)
Unfortunately, the accompanying graphic features a giant circle around the UK and the entire island of Ireland, which is odd seeing as the Republic of Ireland is not debating whether or not to leave the European Union.
Irish readers were quick to correct them.
