phillips expressed opposition to irish independence, declaring on 7 march 2017 in her column in "the times", that the "most troublesome bits" of the uk are "showing signs of disuniting". for her, scottish nationalism and irish republicanism are cultural phenomena rooted in romanticism and myth", while englishness "came to stand proxy for all the communities of the british isles". in particular, she wrote "ireland itself has a tenuous claim to nationhood" because the irish free state was only established in 1922. she denounced "attempts at secession by tribes" in northern ireland. "the irish times" said that the piece had met with objections from both unionists and republicans. the irish ambassador to the united states, daniel mulhall, said on twitter that the country's sovereignty is "based on strong sense of identity, distinctive culture & shared values and interests" and rejected her claim.

in february 1964, the irish government indicated its wish to appoint an ambassador to canberra. the one issue, however, that blocked the exchange of ambassadors had been the insistence of australia that the letters carried by the irish ambassador should have the royal title as "elizabeth the second, of the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, australia and her other realms and territories, queen." this was, according to daly, despite the fact that the australian royal style and titles act did not mention northern ireland, referring only to "the united kingdom, australia" etc. however, that november when eoin macwhite presented his credentials as irish ambassador to australia, a circular was issued to all australian government departments indicating to them to use the word "ireland" rather than "the irish republic". the uk was by the mid-1960s the only country not to refer to the state as ireland.
