Anyway process of elimination and the Irish appear to be most similar to French Bretons and Norwegians on the Continent. This is in line with the Irish DNA Atlas.
Anyone can do this for the populations they are interested in. You just need Vahuaduo https://vahaduo.github.io/vahaduo/ and the Global 25 spreadsheet for the modern pop averages scaled https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sMEsGxHv_7ZPE35_5kNeOtLY-UH19KKm/view
If no one else wants to I'll do for the British populations in the future.

Stronger influence of Dutch like component evident on the Scots. Possibly a proxy for Anglo-Saxon admixture? I suppose I should see what happens when Brittany is removed but might do that after I've went through the British populations.

How do you get your own global 25 coordinates?
You get them from David at Eurogenes. Only 12 USD and very much worth it.
Email him at Eurogenesblog@gmail.com and you pay by paypal.
He adds ancients all the time and when populations from studies are released.

Interesting about the Dutch. My mother was from Aberdeen, and has a lot of ancestors from Banffshire and Morayshire. She often scores more Dutch than English .

Honestly, IMHO the Irish full dataset example just looks like Scottish people with a slight pull towards Tudor era Scotland.

75.6 Norwegian
15.8 Spanish_Soria

2.6 Lak
0.8 Biaka
0.6 Papuan
My Norwegian is super inflated compared to the Irish who have Shetlantic,Icelandic and/or Orcadian as a proxy but then I have Spanish and Welsh instead of French like the Irish. As far as Biaka and Papuan they are under 1 so could be statistical noise but I can imagine papuan possibly from the British empire. I am American 75% British isles descent AFAIK.

Or maybe it has something to do with the Dutch Bell Beakers.

Could be but it is lower in the Irish and Irish are a very Bell Beaker population. Being only a novice I'm just looking at what's obvious in front of me. It could just be the algorithm compensating for the different population mixes. It is just interesting to me to see what is picked for each population. I'll do more later.
How do you do this? You post spreadsheet in source, but than what? I don't know how to get run like yours where it shows not closest matching populations but breakdown in percentages.

How do you do this? You post spreadsheet in source, but than what? I don't know how to get run like yours where it shows not closest matching populations but breakdown in percentages.
You have to post the population spreadsheet in Source in Vahaduo and the target is the country coordinates or if looking at yourself your coordinates. Then you can look at individual distances or under single it will give you a breakdown. It's a really easy tool to use and super quick.
