polystyrene prod

A member of the Church of Ireland (Irish Anglican) who refers to a Roman Catholic who has converted by his own free will to the Church of Ireland. A mildly disparaging term used by the better off chattering classes of the Church of Ireland around Dublin and suburbs but not in common use elsewhere on the island.

At the church garden fete Mary quietly whispered into Jean's ear. See the man over there, he's new to the church has 'come over' to us.............Paddy Mulgrew, another polystyrene prod.
