TDs will tomorrow consider a bid for a United Ireland - which also involves unification with Scotland.

The petition is one of several due to become before the Oireachtas petitions committee.

The bid asks members to "extend an offer of national unification".

A petition does not need wide support to be brought to the Petitions Committee, and can be tabled with only one signatory in favour.

Previous petitions include calls for My Lovely Horse to be entered into the Eurovision, and for Conor McGregor's face to appear on the Â€1 coin.
