It was not that long ago that a well-known writer on linguistic topics was able to state that

by the little Englanders we are told that the Irish speak, not English
but Anglo-English; yet many educated and cultural Irishmen speak
and write the most admirable, if slightly old-fashioned, English.
(Partridge 1951:65)

I was very amused by the multiple sightings of Irish dictionaries being sold alongside French in all the major supermarkets in Connaught.

Er, what do you think about Anglo-English?

[farraige]

if this is something that exists as an opposite to concepts like Hiberno-English, say, then there's nothing wrong with it indeed :)
