Irree Magh (Manx: "Rebellion" or "Insurrection") was a militant Manx nationalist group. In 1975 it distributed leaflets calling for the expulsion of "come-overs" (Manx term for immigrants) and Manx Independence.[1] The group called for "open rebellion in order to preserve our nation, heritage and country (or what's left of it)".[2]
