Abstract
The article constructs a stereotypical image of an Irishman, existing in the British national memory form the XII century till nowadays. The analysis of ethnic phraseological units showed that they fix fewer positive qualities of the Irish. To a greater extent they show disrespectful and derogatory attitude towards this ethnic group. The resulting portrait is confirmed by data of memoirs and official historical chronicles
