Irish citizens can vote. Don't think they are the voters Farage is referring to though. He probably drafted it as "allowing Muslims to vote

"Have cake, eat cake" and a (deliberately?) naive belief that changes to the GFA can be imposed by England & that those communities who consider themselves affected will accept it. Ignoring international obligations, the motivation for the creation of the Windsor Agreement belies this belief
